And if the upgrade is done by Apple, that extra cost is probably absorbed by the labor cost of getting into the case by Apple's employees. I could be wrong, but in the large scheme of things I don't think upgrade money is anything more than a tiny line item on Apple's balance sheets. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

There were a couple of blotches that could have been smudges on the inside of the glass. Turns out they were defects in the LCD panel, so that has been replaced. Computer should be back with me tomorrow, courier permitting.
