Owner Beware: Smoking May Void Mac Warranties
There are at least two Mac owners who were refused warranty service for system repair because there was machine evidence that they smoked cigarettes. The story is here. Some of the comments to the story are hilarious. [MG]December 1, 2009 in Tech Tips | Permalink

I don't think it is fair to refuse someone's computer warranty based on whether the computer that needs fixing was touched by cigarette smoke. The Mac company should make this clear to all Mac buyers that if you smoke or are in a household where there is smoke, your warranty is no longer valid.

Mac computers should have a tag such as "not suitable for smokers" so the public can be informed of any repair refusal in the future.
