Yeah, but warrenties are important because of the way many Macs are built.
I know people who lost everything they had on their disk when their Mac
motherboard went out, or something stupid like that - and their computer
was out of warrenty. On a PC, you'd just take the old drive out, pop it
into another computer, and copy the files off of it or use it as a second
disk. With the Mac the whole computer - monitor and all was trash.
