But the Macalope decided to check. He asked Chartier if he’d ever been
contacted by Lynn Fox about this and here’s what he said via email:
        What a riot: no, I have never been contacted by Fox or
        anyone else from Apple regarding any of this stuff. In fact,
        I’m not even receiving those post-support call surveys or
        notices that my Mac warranties are about to expire and that
        AppleCare is an affordable way to stay within Apple’s graces.
Huh. Well, how about that?
