The Advantage of Repairing Your Apple Logic Board Over Replacement

The cost savings is enormous when you find a shop that can actually repair your broken Apple logic board. There are many other advantages to a board level repair facility.
There are many advantages to having your Apple computer repair done at a facility that can replace just components on the Apple logic board. There are numerous weaknesses in the Apple logic boards out there. With a new Apple logic board costing hundreds if not over $1000's of dollars then add on labor. The repair bill at the Apple stores can be astronomical.

Apple needs to sell new units to stay profitable. A board level repair shop does not. Many board level facilities just repair the Apple logic board itself. There are even mail in Apple laptop repair centers that you just mail you Apple computer off to and they remove and repair the logic board then reinstall it. Always look for a mail in Apple repair center that offers free return shipping with insurance!

Also there can be a misdiagnosis by the Apple stores. I have seen it many times. There have been cases brought up where an Apple computer was said to need a logic board but really the hard drive was bad. When you are looking for an authorized Apple repair center to mail in your Apple iMac, your Macintosh, your PowerBook, iBook, iBook G4, or G5 Desktop, check and make sure they have the ability to diagnose the problem correctly and replace only what is needed. Getting a logic board repaired instead of a noisy hard drive can be an expensive mistake and lead to headaches down the road.

One other tech tip. A true Apple logic board level repair should run about $250. That is almost 2/3 off the normal replacement logic board price. This should include labor and return shipping as I stated earlier.

If you have been disgruntled by the Apple stores and unwary of buying a new computer, THEN DON'T. In this economy repair is the best option. Why shell out thousands when about $250 will do the trick and get you up and running? Having a home business or any business down can be big money problems. Heck, it's a problem for some parents if their children can't use the Apple laptop for homework. What ever you need your Apple laptop or Apple computer for repair is better than buying new or throwing it away.
