		<description>Dear colleagues,
I add the letter I send to apple and the answer I get from an European Instution I ask for assistance. 
At the moment my computer after 22 days in the Apple Service Center has come back home and is working as it should from the first day until now continously. In any case I am agree to sign a community letter as the proposed, better  written than mine. I will try to get a new one or be reimbursed or compensated for the lot of hours and disturbance they get me loose.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your message which we have forwarded to the Enterprise &amp;
Industry Directorate-General of the European Commission
(http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/ict/policy/ict/index.htm) as well as to the
Information Society Directorate-General
(http://ec.europa.eu/information_society/policy/ecomm/index_en.htm) for
information and follow-up.

We understand and sympathize with your disappointment. We do hope that you
have received or will receive a positive reaction from Apple. If not, we
would suggest that you contact a consumer protection organisation in Spain
which will be in a position to supply further assistance on your problem.

Kind regards,

Paola Rigat

LETTER TO APPLE
Dear Sir,
In May 17th, as soon as the new brand MacBook 13&quot; was available I made my
buy order to get it by means of the Online Shop of Apple in Spain.
The computer arrived on first of June. After some days playing, ... the
battery life was shorter than should be and quite lower than its
predecessors, since my laptop never reach the 3 hours.
After looking for the detailed data sheet
..., than in the most economizer configuration was always around 2 hours, I
took it to the Apple Service after phoning the Apple Care On-Line.
...
Seems to be clear and no need more evidences than the product was defect.
The warranty should cover the defects or malfunctions when they are random,
but this is not the case as the massive media and people should reflect
between the Webs shown below. The defect and the massive apparition seemto
be more likely a fraud to the costumer.

http://www.appledefects.com/?p=99

For all the detailed and explained, I request you to replace the laptop for
a new unit free of defects or hidden malfunctions or for the reimbursement
if the product seems to be still in test phase. If after 10 days of this
letter I do not receive a satisfactory response I will take you to the
European or Spanish
competent authorities.
I look forward for hearing from you soon,</description>
