Macbook Repair Update
Oct 9, 2007 Housekeeping
Well, it looks like I am without my computer for the rest of the week. I took the Macbook into the Apple Store a few minutes after the previous post, and met up with a Mac Genius. He looked at it for a few minutes and determined it needed to be sent away to get fixed. Luckily it is still covered under the warranty, so it is free, but I am still without my Mac for a couple of days. I have this crap HP laptop I use at work, so that will have to do. I now know what it feels like to say goodbye to your child as they go to school for the first time.
This brings up another question. Another month or so and the computer would have been outside of its one-year warranty. I could get AppleCare for about $300, and that would cover it for 3 years I think. I am always a big advocate for getting the protection plan, and I really want to in this case, but I can’t afford the $300. Anyone out there have any experience with the paid AppleCare protection?
