So I have this handy little Aperture rebate for $200.00. I have to spend it by 9/30.
I got my PowerBook in May, so I have a good eight months left on its warranty. AppleCare for two additional years is $350.
By the time the standard warranty runs out, it will be worth about $600.00. Now I kind of have a problem throwing more than half of what the thing is worth at it in warranty, but obviously a replacement MBP would run me about $2,000.
I also have my Power Mac, which I got in June, the warranty for that is $250.00. The replacement cost for it is obviously pretty high (about $4,000 with RAM, etc.)
Am I thinking right to think that geting AppleCare on the PM is smarter than getting it for the PB, even though the PB is more likely to break?
What say you?
