    Im curious if I buy a mac from a dealer online thats not an authorized Apple dealer, will Apple still honor the 1 yr. warranty if something were to go wrong w/ the mac?

    also could I still purchase the apple care 3 yr. plan if I buy from a dealer that isnt a authorized Apple dealer?

    thanks for any help!

    thanks for the quick reply. Ive never owned a mac before so I didnt know if Apple would honor it or not.

    Ive seen so many topics about being "Apple Authorized" I wanted to be on the safe side before I bought from this dealer.

    Thanks again!!

    Yes, it does not matter wherever in the world you purchase your Mac or AppleCare Protection Plan, its a worldwide warranty covered by Apple :).
