I strongly disagree with your statement Geoffrey. I think AppleCare is a must. I have never had any bad dealings with Apple in regards to having it. Case in point. My new G5 had a Bad Power Supply. I took it to the Apple Store. They fixed it, but forgot to calibrate the Machine after replacing the Power Supply. My G5 started blowing the fans at full speed. The noise was so bad, it hurt my ears. I called Apple and told them what happened. They apologized for the error. Then they offered to send a technician to my apartment to fix my new G5. They understood that the G5 was a heavily machine, and would have been a burden to take back to the Apple Store. So a technician came out to my apartment. He fixed my new G5 in 30 min. None of this would have happened if I hadn't had AppleCare.
There are always two sides to a coin.
