Indeed.  And people in this group should be congratulating Apple for
repairing equipment instead of replacing it.  There may be more labour
and delay involved, but ultimately it's probalby the better way to do
things from all points of view.  You don't get (or even expect) a
courtesy car for free when you take your generic consumer model in for
repairs, even if you'd just driven it off the lot a few days earlier.
Maybe if it were a top-end Mercedes G-glass that you'd just payed 100 Gs
for, but not your dinky average 20G domestic.   (and you probably
wouldn't get another G-class while yours is in the shop either)
