I worked with an educational institution that did tons of apple devices. AppleCare claims were pretty frequent given use case, and hassle free. I honestly haven't even HEARD of months long replacements. This was some time ago though so things may have changed, but something seems off. My own experience was simply, how can apple be making money with this service? I believe the cost is $6/month currently. Highly worth it if you are concerned about service. Dell does a 16/month support offering, but limited to 2 years.
