    So, let me break it down for you. After my 3rd Macbook which was my 6th defect notebook from Apple, I got in touch with customer relations and told them all about this streak of bad luck.

    They grabbed control of my case from the sales division and they also upgraded me to a 2.4 MBP from a 2.0 MB free of charge because of everything I've been through. Then they tried to see if it was possible to cut a deal with local retailers, so I could go grab a MBP from them instead of waiting, but all local retailers were out of stock so they sent me the MBP with priority 1 shipment and I got it 3 workdays later.

    and....

    Wait for it... Wait for it.. no defects! :D MY STREAK OF INJUST-BADLUCK is over!!! ^^

    to celebrate this miracle;

    Nice to hear some good press about AppleCare. Hopefully you didn't jinx yourself with this thread.
