Yes :) Certain iBooks come to mind, and also I think some iMac G5s.

If Apple gets a batch of bad components, they often seem to make it right this way, even if technically the warranty doesn't require them to.

There's a reason Apple is rated in surveys as having the best support in the industry.

My old high school had some troubles with video cards in several machines that were about 3 years old. My mentor had them sent in and fixed.
