Applecare for a MBP is $579????? That is a bit outrageous..... but you could easily
spend that much to replace a motherboard or repair some other major hardware
problem if your original one year warranty has expired.

I have had excellent luck with my 1GHz powerbook - no malfunctions so far.

Many people advise getting Applecare for notebooks, but i did not have
the extra cash after spending $1400 for mine.


I have noticed in the past that PC notebooks warranties are normally
for 3 years coverage and not nearly as expensive - but that may have
changed in the past couple of years.

compUSA and a few other similar businesses offer extended warranties on
computers they sell - including macintosh computers.
