    Apple really do take care with their customers

    They always help them out with the basics.

    That only tells you how to move an iMac G5.

    Does this mean they are still trying to work out the protocols for their other models?

    * I also don't respond to friend requests. Save a few bits and don't bother. I'll just end up rejecting anyways.*

    You are screwed.

    Not only are there no instructions on how to hook it back up again, there aren't even any instructions on how to sit it down.

    Once you have picked it up, it stays in your hands even unto death.

    Re: Apple really do take care with their customers

    Oh, I bet there are instructions.... online... but seeing as how all of the cables and cords have been disconnected, there's no way to get online. The web page has a view count of 0.

    Me or I_Love_My_Vans? If you're referring to me, I've never been married, I'm quite happy being a single dad for life.
