The Expanded iBook Logic Board Repair Extension Program (REP) is over

That’s the word: Apple’s Global Service Exchange is no longer accepting claims on the Expanded iBook Logic Board Repair Extension Program.

If you have one of the iBooks with a serial number falling within the range that was covered by the Repair Extension Program and it starts showing scrambled or distorted video, weird lines on the screen, an intermittent video image or full-on video freeze there may still be hope. If the machine is within three years of the original purchase date, contact Apple Customer relations and complain and you may just qualify for service.

122763257 3fea7a9484 m MaxProtect impact resistant protective sleeve for Apple MacBook ProMaxUpgrades has released the MaxProtect, an impact resistant carrying sleeve for Apple MacBook Pro. It is made of Visco-Elastic Memory Foam, which is designed to resist impact and shock. From the picture provided, the MaxProtect is also fairly aerodynamic and, with the conveniently placed handles, will probably enable you to hurl your MacBook Pro greater distances than you would be able to if it were unsheathed.

The MaxProtect for MacBook Pro sells for USD$26.99. MaxProtect cases for PowerBooks and iBooks are also available, check their website for pricing.
