I currently own a laptop covered with a 3years warranty ending soon, its been serviced several time and if i get one more repair they'll exchange it (hoping for bigger here ;) i was wondering what would be the best way to damange it without any trace ?, i heard a drop of rubbin oil on the cd-reader leaves no trace, it burn the optic len, is it true, anyone have a better suggestion ? i know my request sounds shaddy but ive paid 300$ for that full warranty and i intend to use it to the fullest

thanks for youre time

Matt,

Ya know that warranty costs are a major factor in the price you pay for a product?
Right? Manufacturers don't warranty anything for free; you pay for your basic warranty "up front" and each and every claim will change the amount they factor in to the next product. The more a product is serviced under warranty, the more we all pay.

How can you expect the support you pay for when your mission is to stick it to 'em?

Right?
-i sure do ,but the warranty is not from the manufacturer but from the store that sold it

to make a long story short, this very laptop was bought NEW and got replace 3 month later with a REFURB since it was discontinued, from there its only been trouble and repairs on various componement... i intend to get what i paid for at first, a NEW laptop

i know what im asking is wrong, im only looking for a way to get that last repair to get it replace

thanks anyway

just run the living hell out of it leave it on 24/7 overwork it until it can't stand no more then run it even more. If it's in that bad of shape it's bound to finish it off. If that don't work smother it in some extreme heat and it will probably kick the bucket. Heat kills hard drives cpu's etc. Just let it do it naturaly but quicker:).
