No, but if you sell your mac it's a good argument. I had them installed by
an apple authorized service center, too.

Chip merchant doesn't take credit cards, and doesn't ship overseas.

Technology works shipped FedEx and all the hassle was handled - I just
gave them my VISA number and everything was smooth.

That's my mileage.
