[Casper] Feature Request

[Steve Wood]

I am very new to Casper, so this may be a feature that is already  
present and I just haven't found it yet.  Or, it may be a feature that  
is already in the works.

It would be nice to have the ability to pull actual warranty  
information directly from Apple using the serial numbers of the  
machines.  I know that the Self Service portal for Apple (Global  
Service Exchange or GSX) has an API that you can script/program into,  
and I know that there are companies looking at using the AppleCare  
information site for this.  Managed Planet, which creates plug ins for  
LANDesk, has one that they were/are working on.

So, if we can get warranty/purchased date information from Apple in  
the inventory reports, that would be swell!


Thanks!
