Anybody here ever used, heard or currently have http://www.safeware.com as their insurance company for their portables/desktops? Reason being, is that I find this to be a lot better then AppleCare and just wanted to hear from others who know more about this then I do...

Thanks!

Thanks for the link, I appreciate that.

Do you know if this can be signed up for at anytime? Or does it have to be signed up for during the first year and while still under warranty with Apple? Reason being, is what stops sombody who "has a broken TiBook screen" to just buy into this one day and get a brand-new screen/replacement out of the deal 2 years after original purchase? Or, can you do that?!?
