Honestly, it's still better than nothing.

Apple is obviously in the wrong here and they had to get sued before admitting the mistake, but it's no worse than other manufacturers. At the very least, once Apple admitted it, the replacement experience is usually pleasant and takes a single appointment at an Apple Store.

Compare that with other manufacturers where you have to ship the machine to some service centre abroad at your own cost and wait god knows how long before getting it back.




With a $2000+ laptop you should really get an extended warranty, and all serious manufacturers send a technician to you.

Having to go to a physical Apple store implies that there's one nearby.
