John Lewis or Apple Store (UK)

For anyone in the UK, what is the advantage of buying from Apple, (1 year) over John Lewis' 2 year warranty,

Admittedly if something is going to go it will happen in the first year, but the Apple staff are so much better.....and also it's the same RRP.

Probably the same comparison can be made in the U.S. of Best Buy over Apple's warranty. Only John Lewis can state their advantage. I would recommend reading the terms of each warranty. See Apple's warranty covers manufacturer defects. I would also consider the fact warranties are not insurance, so if you have an accident, unless terms specifically say it, you are on your own as long as you can't prove a condition existed before the accident. I recommend always when getting a new machine to run the hardware test that comes with it to at least have a base line, and if there is an issue, to record it with Applecare.
