  Because that means you are beholden to Apple ...... and nobody else can repair it .. ever!! ... which is exactly what they want ........

........ so Apple has got you by the short and curlies ..... (your pubic hairs)

 You asked why is that a big deal ....... well I will just give one example ...... guy goes to the Apple store as his laptop's screen isn't working ..... Apple take it out the back to look and come back with a water damage estimate of between to $1,200 to $1,700 the seller recommends a new computer ....... the guy reels back and leaves the shop ..... arrives at Louis Rossman's repair- shop in NY and recounts the story .... there was no water damage .....Louis looks to find a pin bent on the screen connector plug and repairs it in two minutes .... no parts needed at no charge. 
 On it's own it's nothing, but there are "thousands of these stories" ...... basically Apple want sell you a new laptop ..... so they give a repair estimate quoting water damage so, new mother board/ screen etc. .... but really they leaning on you to buy a new computer ...... if you don't they fleece you for the repair ...... for them it's a win win situation ...... for you it's lose lose.
   Apple are not honest about in their repair strategy ........ especially about laptops ......
 
  Now I'm sure that many here love Apple .... but I don't ...... of course if those are happy with it then fine ..... however their recent strategy of pairing parts so as to be non interchangeable is just done out of spite .. we are entering a new phase in Apple's philosophy ....... 


   Well Markus you did ask !!   Smile

  See here the state of Washington is requested for a "right to repair" mandate ...... some of Apple's defences are transparent ....

.... As an aside ..... I think I was more wounded than you with your Leica rear screen issue .... I would have sold all my Leica gear and never spent another penny with them .... ever. ......

   Lastly and with tremendous joy ...... I am absolutely delighted that Trump is out  out out  .......  

.. there's no been much good news this year ....... but this makes up for all of it !!


 Now we can sit back and watch him make more of a fool of himself with more of his lies and deceits!!

   Right, I think I've put the world to rights and so have the Americans!!
