Florida has a state department of insurance and all insurance companies and
extended warranty companies (because extended warranties are essentially
insurance) have to register with that department in order to sell products
to INDIVIDUALS. Apparently they can sell to businesses without registering.


My sister-in-law came up against this a couple and her computer dealer told
her to register AppleCare through her business.
