    I've always wondered about these 'Engineers reports'.....

    Given the pretty loose useage of the term 'Engineer' in the UK do these companies asking for them make any specific demands regards the author being 'Sony Recognised' or attached to an 'Authorised' repair centre/business

    Or in the case of obvious failures pretty much anyone with an Engineering qualification in a vaguely relevant field could be signing one?

    Hi, found this thread searching on Google. usual story, YLOD struck, am going to try and go up against Amazon. Any change of getting that engineers details. At a tenner a shout, with the number of YLOD's, he's going to get pretty rich quick.

    thanks

    I don't suppose this engineer knows anything about MacBook Pro's?
