That's no big deal. During the warranty period (up to 3 years, if you
buy AppleCare) you get to talk to a real person if you have a problem
with the product. I once spent several hours, spread out over a few
calls, with one of their people helping me work through a problem with a
system upgrade. No charge.
But I also didn't know a telephone could reformat a drive. ;-)
