Amber: I get AppleCare on every piece of hardware I buy and consider it essential. A matter of course. Like buying a new car: would you get one without an extended warranty?
Craftsmanship on electronics is predictable, but you always have components that go bad. On my 15" Albook, I have replaced the screen TWICE under AppleCare ($1,500.00 each time); I have had to have the internal bluetooth module replaced (oddly, USB drivers for an external drive killed it, stick with Firewire!), etc., etc. AppleCare is like free money.
