[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1605294, member: 110816"] When you spill liquid on your machine, all bets are off. You are confusing warranty with accident insurance. You get AppleCare for one year from purchase and an purchase an additional 2 years that will deal with manufacturing defects and issues. Apple doesn't offer accidental insurance, but there are third parties that do. They will cover the repair cost after some deductible or cover the cost of replacing the item.. You can hardly expect negligence on your part to be covered under the manufacture's warranty. The overpriced line, as clearly explained by member Nethfel, is mostly false if you properly equip a laptop from any of Apple's competitors to match what you get on the Macbook line.. Also, you didn't mention this, but the resale values of Macbook's go far beyond what you'll get for any other brand out there. So if you pay $1000 for a Dell laptop, 2-3 years down the line, you're only going to get back a small fraction of what you paid. In most cases with Apple computers, you can easily get back 60% or more of the original price.. [/QUOTE]
