Thanks Wise,

I'm in Thailand (on the seaside) and we have great Apple service here.

Recently my MacBook Air 2013 died and I went to Apple and paid them a small fee (around $28 USD) to check it out. They did a full analysis (it would not power up at all) and their Apple techs told me the logic board was bad. They quoted around $600 to replace.

I took that MBA to some local repair shop and they fixed the logic board for about $200 dollars and it works great. That's much better than the $600 for a logic board or nearly $2000 for a new one I don't really need.

The only thing I don't look forward to is lugging the heavy MacPro up there, since it is a lot heavier and bulkier than my little MBAs.
