Submission + - Defective Parts or Incorrect Use in Warranties?

aiwarrior writes: "I have recently had problems regarding low quality of parts in my Lenovo X61t with its the bezel ungluing, the hinge support arms breaking and other design/quality of parts issues.
Some designs are just bound to break and without the manufacturer ever acknowledging it leaving the bill to the customers who already paid for the product. How should i explain that i didn't incorrectly use the equipment? I was told by the technicians that warranties never cover body parts failures because they can all be attributed to incorrect use. Have you ever had any success with similar cases where a warranty service was initially denied and then granted? What did you do?"

Submission + - Police issue Death Threats to Man with Camera 9

An anonymous reader writes: Cops in St. Louis have taken objection over a local man filming their abuses of power, and have responded with death threats, and stalking. The guy they're harassing installed a pretty neat video system in his car after having received a speeding ticket that he that was unfair. What he ended up catching on tape was far worse than a speeding ticket. Luckily the news has picked up on it, so he is probably out of immediate danger.
