Suggestion on Applecare for Apple.
I strongly suggest Apple takes the opportunity to contact buyers of new Apple hardware especially if it was bought at another reseller than an apple store as to contact them after a short time and suggest to that buyer to take applecare and tack it on their iCloud subscription on a monthly basis or by itself to make the app. 10% price of this new device easier to justify to perhaps a loved one or ones self that it is only a small monthly amount irrevocable thus everyone would have an easier time taking it. of course this shouldn't be necessary but that is the electronics quality today. Another thing is the stores should offer to put parts that are not new in a machine that is out of guarantee when the part far surpasses the 30% worth of the machine. It's better than having to scrap an already expensive machine and Apple would become the champion of the customer service. More than now. Just some thoughts
