![]() ![]() There are always people out there that need your money more than you do. PROFIT PROFIT PROFIT, and tons of stories of what they also don't cover. *shrug* AND people can get 'warranties' for their houses now too. Imagine health insurance covering the bandaids and Kleenex, and not covering the resetting of the broken leg that needed those items. When you need them, they usually have high 'co-pays', and often don't cover *all* of the expenses needed to get your car back on the road. I've also heard people grumbling about those 'coverage plans'. Switching to those 'extended warranties' on cars, are a complete waste of money, which is why I get so many calls and offers in the mail. Maybe if they did die more often, car insurance would cover it. ![]() I've never tried to claim a dead engine, but I've never had an engine die. But health insurance is 'sickness insurance'. If that had been an option I would have jumped on it as the main reason for ditching this machine will be the keyboard when it breaks again (not lack of power). Unfortunately our coverage ended not long before they started offering annual extensions. When we replace the machine with a new one I will likely get AC+ again. We didn't actually have any accidental damage claims but had several repairs for the crappy keyboard, as well as broken thunderbolt ports. Since she got the high end model it was well worth the extra money for AC+ simply for peace of mind. She uses her computer a lot on the couch and leaves it sitting around in not the greatest spots and we have a bunch of young kids running around the house constantly. I was able to do those repairs myself but with the newer designs that's not really an option. I had to replace a trackpad and a keyboard (on separate occasions) on her previous unibody MBP because of a spill (keyboard) and a dropped objected (broke the trackpad). That said, I have bought AppleCare+ for my wife's 2016 15" MBP mainly for the accidental damage coverage. And if you can't, then you should probably not buy an expensive computer to begin with. ![]() Yeah typically extended warranties are not worth it if you can afford to replace/fix if something happens.
