Should had looked at the link closer. Didn't realize it was a finalized update to their original posting.
I'd definitely take option 2 if I were an owner. What happens if the 'computer shop' damages the chip. Then Outlaw accepts no responsibility since it was a shop of your choosing? This situation just leaves to many questions unanswered on who accepts liability and how a repair problem would be resolved.
Option 2 seems to be the route to avoid possible hassles and frustrations.
Each to their own.
