Nobody has said that your machine will spontaneously stop working when the AppleCare runs out. What I *did* say was that after a machine is out of warranty, it is no longer economically viable to fix it when it breaks. Sure you can continue using it -- for years on end, perhaps -- but when it breaks, it will be more viable to replace it than fix it.
So I stand by my advice: once the AppleCare runs out on your machine, you should start saving for a new one. > There is no need to upgrade just because your Apple Care plan ran > out. Um, dude, nobody actually said this. I said you should start *saving* for a new one. _Chas_ Come to ...
