kaesthebluntedwonder Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 That's a tough one. CAn't you buy the protection program a year after you get the machine, and that way get 4 years of service? But then again, in 4 years that shit'll be outdated...I really don't know anything, but what I'm trying to figure out is if I should get an Apple or another brand when i do decide to drop some dough on a laptop.

swif1 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 If a laptop has everything you need nowadays, what more do you need in the following years? I say make sure you know exactly what the extended warranty covers before you get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InfiniteWisdomOfThePezDisp Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I'm going with no. Apparently I have a new connection that can get me whatever laptop I want at a very reasonable price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymity1 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I' ve got the insurance. But I do alot of travelling with mine, so I just got it for peace of mind. I've had trouble in the past with cd/dvd drives. I'd say get it if you have the extra money to burn. Then you dont have to worry about your screen going out or anything. I hear apples service is extremely good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telo Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 first hand.. right here.. I bought a 17" powerbook in february and i also bought the extended warranty.. Im glad i did because im pretty shitty when it comes to taking care of the most expensive and important things in my life.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENOJOS Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 anything i buy over $1000 dollars gets a warranty. i'd rather have a warranty and never use it then not get it and get fucked out of my money if something were to happen. that shit would eat at me for years on end and with my bad luck, id rather fork up some extra dinero to protect my investment.

dignan Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 i bought the apple care when i bought my iMac a few years back and i must say that it was worth the money...it's paid for itself a few times over. my advice to you is to buy the apple care...it's worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nekro Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Just "accidentally" spill hydrochloric acid on it in 2 years, 9 months after you back everything up. When you look at it that way, $183 is pretty cheap for a new computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrChupacabra Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 I'm ordering a powerbook next week. I figure i'm already spending a couple grand, i might as well drop the extra couple hundred hundred just in case something happens. I'd rather spend that $200 and never have my computer fuck up than not spend it and have something happen to it and end up having to drop another couple grand on a new laptop.

8onus Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 apples are the BMW's of computers, they're trendy as fuck and got a good engine. don't get me wrong, i am actually going to be buying a powerbook before i move to new york(hopefully a g5 laptop will be out then) but my brother built my PC for half the price of a G5 and the thing is just as fucking sick, thats a lie, it's broken right now, im on my laptop. fuck pc. i am going to the apple store.
