Hi There,
I am a possible new Macbook Pro owner but there are a few things I have to ask to all the business users out there.
With all of my windows laptops I purchased the extended warranty with on-site service. This came in handy that if my laptop ever crapped out and needed actual parts, I was always 48 hours away from being fixed.
Well when researching apple care I found that they only do on-site for desktops.....this is very weird in my opinion. Only for desktop? Well anyway. Here are my questions.
How the heck does apple expect a business person to be without their laptops for 7 -10 business days?
I know that it is possible, but not likely that a local Apple store could fix it, but still that is 2-4 days.
They said I could possibly get a loaner...but basically I have to purchase a refurb machine at full refurb price, then get a refund when I return the machine. That is hard on the wallet.
Any thoughts?
I am trying to figure this out, but I am at a loss as to what to do...
