Mac Powerbook repairs in London

[lovingboth]

A friend is beginning to have problems with her four-ish year old (it runs OS X 10.2) Powerbook, which seem to be related to the disk drive.

Any personal recommendations for repair places?

I had a broken PB in London and Apple recommended that if I could survive until I returned to the states I should do it. I said it couldn't wait. They gave me 3 places in London but warned me that I shouldn't let the PB out of my sights, that if they said I had to leave it there overnight to wait for parts I should refuse and give them a small deposit instead.

I asked if they were considering re-certifying the repair places in London to fix this problem. They said "no".

So I waited until I got back to the states.

I know this doesn't help you much. Basically I would recommend you ship it to Apple and pay their higher repair prices. At least you know who's ripping you off.

There is no need, they can bring it into the Apple store in London, they do repairs and are obviously certified. *s
