What To Do With A Broken Mac

What To Do With A Broken Mac
By Jon@Smalldog.com

"I'm sick of this evil computer - put it out of it's misery and mine - get my data off and have it SCRAPPED!" Yes, we (Small Dog) do sometimes hear this, even about Macintosh computers.

However, many people don't know that, depending on the machine's
specific failure, it might possibly qualify for the Apple Repair
Extension program.

If your Mac dies and it's out of warranty, the first step should be
to arm yourself with knowledge. Visit Apple's website and discussion boards to see if your Mac's failure is common.Depending on how common the problem is, Apple might have a repair extension program that allows you to get your machine fixed as though it was still in warranty. This program is cleverly called the "Repair Extension Program."

Apple lists all the current REPs, Repair Extension Programs, at the following URL;
