| AppleCare - a good buy? |
|
I've never been one to fall for the "extended warranty" closing. I would leave fully believing that if my product was going to break, it would break within the first few months - or at least within the given warranty period. In computers, my opinion differs from situation to situation. One thing I do believe in is the AppleCare Protection Plan for your Mac systems and Laptops. The AppleCare Protection Plan (APP) extends your products regular warranty to a full 3 year warranty. You get access to Apple’s award-winning telephone technical support for questions about Apple hardware, Mac OS, iLife, and iWork. I have yet to see such a support package available from Microsoft, but imagine that many people would benefit from "it" as well. I would proudly offer that as well if it were available - but I suppose supporting Windows is an entirely different - perhaps more labor intensive task ;) ![]() For the $199-$299(CA) price tag (for most MacBooks and iMacs), I believe the phone support alone you would use in 3 years is well worth the investment. Combine this with the friendly, expert service from the squad at PlanetCPU (Elora Computer Service) - and your complete Mac buying/owning experience becomes effortless, worry-free, affordable and most of all - fun!

Important NoteThe AppleCare Protection Plan can be purchased only while your Mac is still covered under the standard one-year limited warranty. See AppleCare Protection Plan Terms and Conditions for complete product details.For more information, read frequently asked questions.
