Should I take my Mac laptop to Apple for out of warranty repair?



So, your MacBook, MacBook Pro, PowerBook or iBook is having a problem and your system is no longer covered under the original Apple warranty. You have some choices to make about where and how you get your system repaired. Here's some information that may assist you in making that decision.


If you take your broken MacBook, MacBook Pro, PowerBook or iBook to Apple for out of warranty repair, there are some pros and cons to consider:


Pros:

Trusted source

Proximity (if you are close to an Apple store)

Uses original factory parts

Cons:

High prices

Delayed turnaround time

Only 90-day warranty period
