Posting from my iPhone so sorry for typos and lack of links to previous threads.
My MacBook went to the AppleCare repair center on Tuesday due to my ongoing issues. Got the computer back today and noted they replaced my logic board again (2nd time) and replaced my optical drive (which was acting flaky but wasn't part of my complaint.)
The computer will not start up. At all. Instead of the three buzzes I got with the bad RAM, now there is just one buzz that goes off and on.
Called AC and they asked me to remove the battery and unplug it, then hold down the start button for 5 seconds. then had me put the battery back in and try again. When that didn't work he said I could send it back or take it into a store. The store did the 1st logic board repair and the repair center did the 2nd. What's the lesser of 2 evils at this point??
Have a 4:30 appt at the store but I'm fully expecting the laptop to be sent out once again.
Soooooooooooooo incredibly frustrated.

Only recommendation is to present yourself as more dejected than angry at the Genius Bar. Sympathy gets better results than defensiveness, in my experience.
