honestly, I dont know. This stuff is usually negotiated in bulk, or as insurance. I would pay even $1000 if its an emergency. $150 on-site if parts are $50 is very reasonable price. My point is that macbook is not easily serviceable machine. On Dell I will replace battery myself in a few months, very easy.

Hi, I had a sleep on it. I thought about something. So, a few things about your responses made it clear you're not a native speaker of English - which is fine. I think I didn't consider the possibility that you're just using a word wrong. Based on your more detailed response, I don't think you consider Apple's service options "a joke". Here is an online definition of a joke (in this sense): >informal >a person or thing that is ridiculously inadequate. >"public transport is a joke" Perhaps I am wrong and you find it "ridiculously" inadequate, but from your comments it sounds more like you consider it sub-par or not competitive. Let me think about if I can think of something Apple has done that's a joke. (I just Googled one.) So, the Apple III had no fan even though it needed one (engineers had miscalculated its heat profile) and as a result had a 100% failure rate. Its chips would melt out of their sockets.[1] One official solution to reseat the chips was to lift the machine 3 inches and drop it, to reseat the chips. This was in official company support documents. That's a joke. (The story we're commenting under about failing keyboards might also qualify - but the support option itself doesn't seem to match this definition.) Basically I think you're just using too harsh of a word for the options we're discussing - better words might be: lacking, inadequate, sub-par, etc. [1] https://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/apple/11-worst-apple-product-failures-3515144/ https://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/apple/11-worst-apple-prod...

  I can produce good english if necessary, but too lazy on net forums. I understand what joke is. I (and many of my friends) do consider Apple a joke for enterprise use. Joke in sense of "useless" or "inadequate". 'Genius' in some store does not really cut it.
