Got the MacBook back!!

Got the call this morning that the MacBook is ready so I went and pick up the MacBook. They replaced the fan, SuperDrive and the whole top case which includes Keyboard and Trackpad. Very Happy The MacBook now looks like new and doesn’t make noise anymore. I’m glad that I got the AppleCare Protection Plan (~$200 well spent). Now I can continue the work and research…
