I paid $169 for my iMacs, and I believe $149 for the Mini. Notebooks
start about $200, but check the Apple site, http://www.apple.com for
accurate pricing or of course you can call them at 1-800-692-7753

Hi
I bought it with my iBook as part of the package, so I don't
recall the cost. It is for 3 years and no yearly fee. I guess you
could call Apple to find out about the package, what it currently
includes and the price. I bought my iBook last May.
Take Care

Something similar happened to me. I had to send my iBook in for
repairs, and it was back pretty fast. Do you think ... it owuld
be a
bad idea to send it in for basic maintenance, like I can do with my
BrailleNote? I have to send it n for Braille display repairs and
cleaning, and they check for other problems, too. WouldApple do the
same thing, or do I have to have a specific issue?

Hi folks,
I know the subject of tech support and the like has come up
here. I wanted to share an experience I had last week.
Two weeks ago, my iBook suddenly locked up and would not
start. Fortunately, I was at a friend's house who is a very
experienced Mac user and is one of the major influences in my
switch from Windows to the Mac. He gave the unit a thorough look
and he suggested that it was a good idea to contact Apple. His
feeling was that there was some kind of a hardware problem.
I contacted Apple and went through a series of experiments
directed by the tech support person. Basically, it was the same
things my friend had done, but it confirmed what we already
suspected. There was definitely some kind of hardware issue that
was preventing any power from getting to the board.
So, because I have Apple Care, I received a box directly from
Apple the very next day, shipped the unit to Apple and, within 48
hours, I had my fully functioning iBook back in my possession.
Yes, folks, the cost of buying Apple Care is worth it. I didn't
pay a dime to get my unit repaired. I can relay a few stories in
regard to problems I've had with Window's laptops and dealing with
specific companies that went far differently, so I'm more than
satisfied with how Apple handled my particular situation.
Take Care
