 AppleCare is great, but buying it from Amazon isn't so great July 21, 2007
54 out of 62 found this review helpful
If you buy AppleCare from Amazon (or anyone other than Apple itself), you cannot register it fully online. The online form won't take the serial number, and tells you that you have to call Apple. When you do, they tell you that they will not process your registration until you fax them a copy of your receipt. They explicitly said to me "if you bought it from Apple, we would not require this".

Apple Care is THE warranty. Comparing to Best Buy or HP, Apple Care is the service that all computer users deserve. All repairs are done on site and much faster than from Best Buy or HP etc. I had my battery acting weird, I got it replaced for free after 14-months of having MacBook. I also had horrible buzzing sound when my CD Drive was spinning. Apple Care replaced the whole Drive. I love it. All other computer companies should take Apple as a great example. Definitely recommend getting it.

I suggest that you always get AppleCare for Apple laptops. I had it for my Apple iBook and used it several times without any issues. Apple fixed my problems ASAP. The longest I went without my laptop was 2-3 days, but repairs were usually done the same day in about an hour.
Got a new laptop because of AppleCare Plan March 5, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
My laptop won't turn on after 10 months of usage. I brought it to the store and they shipped it for repairs. After this, I felt uneasy and bought AppleCare protection. I had to phone applecare and fax my Amazon receipt to get the plan bought from Amazon linked with my laptop.
Just after my 1 year warranty ran out, my hard drive died. Since I have AppleCare protection plan, I was covered, and I simply sent the laptop back to repairs. A couple of days later, I got a phone call that they would like to study my old laptop for reasons of failure and sent me a new, most recent model macbook. It comes with Leopard too! They also transfered the AppleCare protection plan to the new laptop for me.
So buying AppleCare was a very wise choice for me. I expect my laptop to last 3 years. After that, it is time for a new laptop anyway. I think I will buy AppleCare again when I buy a new laptop. It gives me peace of mind.
If you are accident prone, buying this might not be a good idea. If they see signs that the laptop has been dropped, spilled water on and so on, it is not covered by AppleCare. I don't think the accidents are covered by the initial 1 year warranty either. So if you are accident prone, and within a year or so, you are bound to have an accident, then buying AppleCare would not extend the lifetime to 3 years, and therefore is a pretty bad idea.
