Think again

Think you own that hard drive in your MacBook? (Friday): "During a recent trip to Europe, Dave’s MacBook died, giving him nothing but a black screen when turned on. He took the notebook into the Apple Store in Emeryville when he got back where he was told the hard drive was faulty, and he would require a new 80 GB drive at a cost of US$160 (Amazon.com has 80 GB drives for an average of $60).

On reluctantly accepting the price, Dave got his MacBook with new drive installed and then asked for his old hard drive back. The Apple Store staff then explained he could not have it back, because the drive was no longer his."
