You can't scratch the LCD on a Mac mini because it does not have one!
As far as portables go, I have seen Apple replace and repair many iBooks and Powerbooks under AppleCare where there was visible abuse by the owner. They are very good about taking care of the customer as long as you are not a jerk about it. |
I would find out about it from either the Apple Store guy or from the Apple Store Online BTO page when I buy the machine. The thing that is strange/annoying about this situation is that the guy called several (I counted 7) times throughout the day, and when my mom finally picked up, he was forceful and rude.
And no, I'm not going to spend $150 to insure on a computer that only cost $600.
