The blonde lady who owns mac made easy is a real bitch. I interviewed with her and was not impressed, I guess my forthrightness and forward looking knowledge about Apple and its business did not impress her either, she thought the ipad and macbook air were gimmicks, she knew very little about Apple and did not have the Apple spirit. I am glad she did not give me the job. I sell a couple macs a year on my own not even having a job, I have probably sold over 100 in my lifetime. As a young kid I went in on my own to my local microcenter when they launched the imac, I believe it was april 14th 1998, I dragged customers out of the pc section and sold 6 imacs that day alone. Owning Apple stock has also been quite rewarding.
When you buy an Apple product always buy the Applecare and always deal with Apple directly, unless its no longer covered, then it would be best to find alternative means, someone like me. I bought a Macbook pro from Apple 6 years ago, they replaced it with a newer model two years in after I had two minor issues, this model is still running great even though it is no longer covered and I expect it to run for a couple more years, Im going to put in an SSD to liven it up, it currently is to slow to edit my 1080p 60fps gopro footage, let alone the higher resolutions.
Macs that are a couple years old can find easy cheap parts on the internet that will make it good as new. I am about to put a new used tested motherboard in my girlfriends five year old macbook, it cost $70 on ebay.
