> (how many people can afford precisely 1 macbook but couldn't possibly afford a second one? Some, but not many)

MacBooks are $1300 pros are around $2500. Most people consider that a large amount of money. A new computer is a big purchase for most people. Most would consider replacing one due to damage to be a big loss.

And if you did replace it, would you buy insurance the second time?
