when i bought my MAC (back in August), i purchased it of off apples website and they still have not charged me for the computer. i gave them my debit card number and they never charged my account. so techically i have a free computer. has anybody else run into this problem?

they are somehow spying on your account and they are going to  deduct the money when you dont have enought to run you into debt.   I am just kidding but sounds good.  Maybe call them and tell them, and they will be tankful and give you it for free anyway.  or just keep it a secret.

haha, that was my plan, not to tell them but i have already drained my funds pretty much for the compute. haha, but i can transfer more in. my mac runs slow on some internets and sometimes freezes, mabey they new that and gave it to me for free to get rid of it. haha, thats my crazy theory anyways.

How the heck?
Seriously, they don't even ship until it's been approved and charged through, that wouldn't make sense.
Craziest thing ever.

Eh, I'd say if you've already called and asked, then you've gone out of your way to correct their business mistake that isn't to your advantage...from here on it's your call, but your moral duty has been fulfilled.

dont call. if you stole it its a whole different story but apple didnt charge you. maybe if it was a friend who sold it to you and they forgot about it then yea tell them.

Apples not gonna give it to you for free if you call them and tell them how honest you are. btw how long have you had it?
