Applecare For Macbook

I would strongly consider it when the one year warranty has almost expired. Normally I would say 'no' for an item at this price point, but consider the following: 1) Apple doesn't exactly have a spotless track record with this latest revision of its product line. Granted, most of the problems seem centered around the iMac, but quality control is a bit suspect at this point IMO. 2) I had a Mini that I bought for my mother die two months out of warranty. It was a logic board problem (according to Apple) and would have cost around $450 to fix. I paid around $500 for the Mini, so THAT represents a REALLY high percentage of the units purchase price.

It's not a PC where you can simple toss in replacement components from any reliable supplier - your parts come from Apple and they can charge what they want. Wait 11 months and see how things are going, but realize that if you roll the dice and lose, it's an expensive proposition. It depends on how long you need the computer for.

If you're only going to keep it for a year or two, then no. If you need it for three years, then yeah, it's probably worth it. I got the AppleCare on my new iMac, but it was less than 5% of the cost of the computer.

I generally won't pay for a warranty if it's more than 10%. Like my Aluminum Macbook, the warranty was $250, the computer cost 1100 bux. SO not gonna happen.

If it breaks, I'll buy another one.but at $100 bux, that's 1/5th or 20% of the mac mini price. I dunno I wouldn't, but then, I don't tend to keep computers for more than 2 years, and if I do, I repurpose them, and they're not expected to be reliable.

For me, it would not be worth it. For my grandmother, who keeps computers for like 4 or 5 years, it'd be a different story. I bought my first Mini in July. The hard drive started dying in November so the Apple Store replaced it with a new machine. That one had a bad hard drive in it, too, so they replaced it with another new machine. AppleCare has definitely been worth it for me. I love the Macs I've owned over the past decade but every one of them (an iBook, an iMac, and now three Minis) have all needed some kind of repair and the AppleCare has always paid for itself.

Even if something doesn't go wrong, I appreciate the piece of mind it brings. But I like my machines to last at least three years. If you're someone who replaces their computer every couple years, you might not find it necessary. I bought my first Mini in July.

I love the Macs I've owned over the past decade but every one of them (an iBook, an iMac, and now three Minis) have all needed some kind of repair a damning indictment indeed. Yet I'm sure that if surveyed you'd think that Apple were great and the best in the world. Hence Apple's false satisfaction rate.

The fact that you have had 5 devices from them at a premium price ALL fail doesn't ring any bells. If you bought a car that turned out to be faulty why would you buy the next 4 from them if they all turned out to be faulty? You wouldn't. Yet Apple are different.?? Amazing how MS get all the bad press and Apple are golden.? Just shows that in this world in this day and age its' all spin and marketing.

No substance. To the OP you are LIKELY to have problems inside 18mths - 2 years. Click to expand.I agree with some of the other posters that Apple reliability is not the best, and the cost of Apple-specific replacment parts (like the logic board) is very high. So if you can't afford to just throw the Mini away and replace it in the event of a failure, Applecare is a good idea. It is also a good idea if you want technical support from Apple, as the standard warranty only includes 90 days of tech support (as part of the 1 yr parts and labor warranty). You can pick up Applecare for the Mac mini for about $60 on eBay. Seems like it could be a recipe for fraud, but fraud would be immediately apparent when the buyer tries to register the Applecare with Apple (as one must do to put it into effect).

So the fact that the sellers have thousands of positive feedback entries regarding Applecare purchases convinced me to give it a try for a Mac Pro. Seller emailed me the Applecare number. Nec powermate vl260 drivers for mac. I registered it, and it went through without a hitch.

I then called Apple and they confirmed that everything was proper with my Applecare coverage. So I would not hesitate to buy from someone on eBay who has multiple positive feedback from buyers of Applecare agreements. Good luck whatever you decide.
