Primarily because the way they state their "return policy" I doubt they 
would allow it. Secondarily,
        'evidence from you and Wes have for a particular model working'
PLUS   'reports on web that a different model does not'
PLUS   'package labeling saying it is for a specific Apple computer'
EQUALS 'not worth the hassle'
