Now that I've got a new PowerBook, I'm thinking later to get AppleCare. When I got my previous PowerBooks, close to 2 years ago, it still had over a year of AppleCare remaining because the original buyer was smart to buy it just a little bit before its first year warranty expired.
Now, I was planning to do the same but a co-worker told me that it doesn't work that way, that now, when you buy it, it starts from the original purchase date. In other words, you can't have a 4 year protection by waiting at the end of your first year warranty to buy AppleCare. I've checked the Apple web site but didn't find anything that would prove one or the other. So, does anybody know how AppleCare really work?
