Apple does not honor the warranty on anything that is modified by a non-apple modification. That means if you do a third party upgrade to your Mac,then the motherboard, power supply, etc. are no longer covered under the Apple's warranty. This does not prevent a REASONABLE dealer from covering a 128K ROM and/or 800K drive that fail within the warranty period for those parts.
