[QUOTE="StevenH, post: 326293, member: 24865"] I don't actually consider them expensive at all, especially these refurbished ones which people are saying are of about the same build quality as new ones. I really appreciate the thought given to the Macbook's build and design - most definitely worth paying extra for. (if you don't know I had a 'trial' when I borrow my gfs one for a week or so - that's how long(or short) it takes for you to fall in love with a Mac! With regards to the AppleCare Protection Plan I'm just surprised that so many people have opted for it. I always read that Macs are reliable in hardware and have excellent build quality. Plus, if you rarely keep a laptop for longer than 2 years its not worth paying for a 3 year plan if you have a 1 year hardware warranty. I know that you're also paying for technical support but heck, you've got this forum! Yup I definitely will..... if I can manage to pull myself away from it! Its officially in the post! Fingers crossed it arrives prompto tomorrow! Thanks for again for helping out a switcher - made things a lot easier for me. [/QUOTE]
