  • Updated links that have moved to the internal handbook page so they no longer route to a 404 error page. Removed Rob Rea as a person to contact as he is no longer with the company. Updated to reflect Apple specs being offered are M3 chips instead of M1. Clarified the laptop repair process to include that only primary laptop repairs will be eligible for reimbursement and that IT approval is needed before going forward with the repair. Updated areas we can now ship to since getting a vendor in India.
