There are people who swear by AppleCare and then there are people like me who never buy it. As one who has owned, for business or personal use, more than 100 Macs in the past 20 years I can testify that hardware problems have been few and far between. And I'm usually buying used, not new, so one would expect an even higher rate of failure. If had spent even $100 on warranties on each of those computers, it would have cost me at least $10,000. I would be surprised if I've spent even $2,000 on all Mac hardware failures combined over that period.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
