I wish i had pics of my friend's old Dell everytime I did an overhaul on it. Uh! ...and I smoke! It was just filthy. His new one is well on it's way to the same condition. I can see them declining if it's stated in their warranty but if it isn't...take 'em to court! :098:

Well, I don't smoke, but I've been known to pass gas.

Any foods I should be avoiding to ensure my computer warranties aren't voided?

So... When are we going to lose warranty when we live near a very busy highway... or near factories?

This is hilarious.

newsflash... what's next?

"Apple demands users equip their homes with HEPA filters or warranty is voided. Proof of annual licensed filter maintenance required."

"Laptops used in vehicles proven to have traveled on dirt or gravel roads voids warranty."

"Pet dander voids warranty. Apple demands all users to kill pets before purchase."

"Apple refuses to honor warranties to farmers, or anyone living in the Midwest within 3 miles of a corn field..."

"Apple initiates Satisfactory Norms Of Behavior (SNOB) policy to reduce exposure to harmful computer environments."

"Operation of a Mac within China (and many industrial regions worldwide) voids warranty under Apple's "Anti-airborne Coal Burning Emissions Initiative"...

"Apple voids warranty to anyone owning a computer wearing clothing exposed to second-hand cigarette smoke, campfires, or firemen."

"Apple employees are currently testing user environments to marijuana smoke exposure... results are expected to be ongoing and inconclusive, as every new model needs to be tested from now on. In other news, volunteers applying for the program are out-pacing Apple's ability to provide marijuana..."
