I am not sure what they told you, but if your kid is in Baldwin County Public School, and he got an air book from them, that $64 you paid is not insurance, it's usage fee. If the power supply quits working, you have to buy another one from them for $80. If you crack the screen, it will cost you about $1000. Some administrator call this insurance some call it a usage fee, but from what was told at the school meeting I went to and buy friends who work in the system is that this is a usage fee. It will not cover damages.
