Hi all,

I plan to buy a macbook pro in Australia (with an education discount) and the applecare plan.

However, I may be moving to the United Kingdom in March for good.

Basically I was wondering whether everything would work with my mac and the applecare plan will still be valid, or do you think I should buy it when I arrive in the UK?

Thanks for reading.

The biggest question is why you moving from OZ to the UK!!
most people seem to be doing the opposite nowadays! :-)

It's cold here dude, verrrry cold.

good luck with the apple care, I'm sure it should be ok?

hi there,
I was recently researching this myself and i found out the following things:
1: MAC OSX can be reloaded into the country you are currently living in or moved to.
2: Software is all compatible
3: Australia uses PAL and so do we so no probs there
4ON'T buy a UK magsafe just get an inernational plug adapter £10 instead of £55
5:In short everything will run fine
if you need more info reply on hear or PM me

Hope this helps,
