A $526.50 repair at no cost to me, and machine is out of
warranty...it's
almost four years old.

Basically, I'll have a brand new machine when I get the laptop back
this
week.

No you won't.


Another peek at his ignorance.

It's OK for Apple to be anti-union, but not Walmart, because he likes
Apple products.


Yup, it's a fleabagger thing...



Please list the names of name-brand manufacturers of laptop computers
whose workers who make the components and assemble these computers are
in American-style industrial unions.

Hint: It ain't Apple, Dell, HP, or Lenovo. What is the country of
manufacture of that crappy desktop you use to run your internet services
provider company on? Atari?
