    Think of it as an extended warranty.

    If you know your way round the Mac issues and you're not going to be stressing the machine then they're usually not worth it. Same case for any appliance, really.

    Look at buying on ebay or similar but make sure you are buying a pack which is posted not a code which is emailed.

    Can you explain further on what that has to do with AppleCare?

    Apple Care is a support package and extended warranty, however, unlike the extended warranties sold by the big name stores on non Apple products, it does not cover accidental damage.
    I hate football and do wish people wouldn't keep talking about it like it's the most important thing in the world
