[QUOTE="Kash, post: 417444, member: 23444"] Applecare tends to be more worth the money for laptops than for desktops for the simple fact that laptops get moved around often, and are thus prone to more wear and tear, whereas desktops just sit on a desk without any rough handling. So if anything were to go wrong with a desktop Mac, it'll most likely happen within the first year. With a laptop, you never know when it might fail. You could one day not wait for it to go into standby before moving it and thus potentially causing hard drive damage. You could leave it on your bed one night, causing it to overheat. Then you have to worry about the battery, which can cause all sorts of problems. So to summarize, get Applecare if you're buying a laptop. You never know when you'll screw it up ;P [/QUOTE]
