I realize that, and I agree, however, that's the absurdity behind some warranty provisions. That was got me in my original pissing match with Sony ... I installed additional RAM and a larger hard drive (both of which were functioning just fine), and when another part of the machine went belly up ... they did not honor the warranty because I had opened the case.
Yes, it's a stupid view, but there are companies that take exactly that position, and you need to be cautious if you are purchasing something with the intent of opening the unit and making any modification.
Of course, you can always just deny that you made a modification in the first place and swap the RAM back out if you have to send it in for warranty repairs.
