> normal wear In the UK the manufacture couldn't get away with that. Goods are expected to "last a reasonable length of time", that includes even after the warranty has expired. I once contacted Apple about a blown 4 year old MacBook Pro PSU. The Apple support guy told me I'd have to buy a replacement as it had reached the end of its life. At the time they were really expensive. I asked him how long exactly Apple PSUs were expected to last and he went silent for a moment and then said he'd ask his manager. His manager came back to me with the offer of a new PSU no questions asked, which I gratefully accepted. One of the those questions not to be asked was what the lifetime of an Apple PSU was. :P
