hello campers. i just got a _byte_deck_ of cards in the mail, and was sitting here looking through them. i found i card dealing with insurance, and began to wonder, do any of you have special insurance for your pc's stereo's etc? will your regular insurance cover them? who offers it? is it worth it? any other thoughts? stev -- stev knowles, boston university distributed systems group ARPA: stev@bu-cs.bu.edu CSNET: stev@bu-cs.CSNET UUCP: ...harvard!bu-cs!stev BITNET: ccsk@bostonu.BITNET

Check your home owners policy, most will cover a PC at home. I have Shelter Insurance and I remember when I checked there was no limit on cost. If the machine is used for a business you should get a separate policy, at least that is what my agent told me.

Most insurance companies have about a $1,500.00 limit for such stuff (stereo, cameras, vcr's, TV's, etc) and this is for each occurrence of a loss no matter how much you really lost. It is best to read the fine print which only comes with the final policy. If you have more than the limit, you can get an extra rider for some extra $$. The same goes for the sports person who has lots of money in guns. Loran Yourk AT&T Technologies
