Mac Warranty

[TC91]

I think I may have read somewhere that if you didn't have OS X installed on your mac (ie just Windows or Linux) that your warranty is no good? Is that true? Thanks.

I took in an iMac with no hard disk and they repaired the screen issue.

So yes, they will repair machines without OS X.

I think that whoever told you that MEANT to say that service under warranty is limited to the Mac hardware and OS X itself. So in other words, if your alternative OS is acting up, that is not covered under AppleCare.

That's good to know. Thanks a lot guys.

And depending on the issue you're trying to get them to fix you might be forced to go through the hassle of installing OS X just to prove/disprove the issue.
