whats the deal with apple care

[Lemonparty]

I have a macbook pro 15 inch retina. I bought the thing in the fall of last year. The whole thing had to be replaced after somebody decided it was thirsty and soaked the thing in water. I got the thing back in December and now I have a popped pixel. Does anyone think the genius bar will charge me for the repair?

They just replaced a laptop that was obviously broken because of the user's misuse so do you think they will refuse to fix an entirely manufacturer's fault dead pixel?

I don't think so...

This is not an AppleCare issue, since the laptop is less than a year old. I expect they will handle the repair at no charge, since the new laptop is only 4-5 months old.
