Sometimes I've gotten a telemarketing and/or mail reminder about Applecare, sometimes I haven't and it doesn't matter what point during the initial year you buy it. However, the onus is ultimately on you to remember to buy it if you want it. I've seen debates rage on lists about wether it's a good deal or not, but, personally, I don't buy a Mac without it. dave -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
