Default Cigarette smoke can void your computer's warranty

Two readers in different parts of the country claim that their Applecare warranties were voided due to secondhand smoke. Both readers appealed their cases up to the office of God Steve Jobs himself. Both lost.

That seems kind of crazy. You would think that should be something mentioned in the paperwork. I would say it was just some tech being a jerk, but 2 separate reports, and both tried escalating the issue to no avail (although I seriously doubt if Steve Jobs knew anything about either of these cases).
