your lying. just call apple and tell them your computer disappeared or email media@apple.com and someone from apple executive relations will call you. Funny how a computer always gives out new computers won’t talk about your case, what do they say when you bring it up? SHHHH it’s top secret?

Perhaps you need to buy some stock, show up at the stockholders meeting, and sign up on the list of stockholders whom wish to speak at the meeting!

well it’s a long time after this post but just thought i’d post that today i received someone else’s iphoto greeting card order (in place of the one i’d actually ordered myserlf). they only have email support for iphoto orders – so i’ve been trying to find the person in another state whose order i received in the hope that she received mine somehow. too bad, since i’ve used iphoto ordering before without problems…

I am in the Chicago-area and need another Apple Stylewriter 1500 or its alternate printer for my MacIntosh 5260 computer. Any suggestions of repair or refurbish or purchase? Thank you. NM

I had great service with my MacBook at the Boulder Apple store, they had it ready to go within 16 hours of my giving it to them (only 6 business hours.)

This isn’t about losing a computer, but it is about Apple’s going-downhill customer service. Within the last week, they have screwed up my 2 orders: one for itunes and one for iphoto. In their latest error, they sent me someone else’s reprints with a different order number – and NO one knows what happened to my order at Apple. Even though an email indicates that it “Shipped”, a customer service person said that it didn’t. Christmas is closing in, and I ordered the photos in plenty of time for Christmas presents. When I tried to explain this to the Apple customer service person, she hung up on me. Apple used to have excellent customer service; consumer beware…I am going to buy CDs and have my photos reprinted elsewhere.

Actually, I got a call back a few hours later! Something akin to “I’m Steve’s assistent. Steve read your email and asked me to look into it personally.” I don’t really believe *steve* read the email, but I’m kinda surprise anyone did. But, this guy has been great on follow-through. I should have the laptop by Wednesday (I have a tracking number!!!). Now, hopefully this one works for longer than a couple weeks (I’m sure it will).
So, Ryan, if you’re still waiting… write Steve (kinda).

So what’s the latest?
Did Apple ever find it or offer you a replacement?

OMG. We are in the same boat. My Core2 MBP died two weeks after I bought it (on its release date like you). I was stupid enough to custom build it which made repair/replace matters worse. The local Apple retail store just sat on it until I prodded them. Then the communication between store and corporate fowled up and it sat again. I have no idea where it went after that (and judging by the number of reps that asked “where’s the laptop now? do you have it?”, Apple didn’t know either. And, then there were the apparently good rep I thought I could trust that never called back (a week’s delay there). I think it was also routed to an engineer because it was so new of a model – and not the service center so that further delayed the order of a replacement. And, on and on.
I finally did email steve jobs this morning (as if it would actually get to him – haha). And, although it may be coincidence, a rep called a few hours later to tell me that my laptop was being built and when I could expect to receive it.
Of course, given the last three weeks, I’ll believe it when i see it.
Good luck,
Ken
