Apple care, rip off. I had to pay $100 for a plug for my ipod... 100 for a fucken plug. get third party stuff, just cause its not porcelean white doesnt mean its crap

Apple will send you an offer in the mail, take it. You're PB will be useless if something goes wrong. Just be wary of things that void the agreegment. Like unapproved ram, third party hardware etc.

Buy a pc, you won't give a shit if it breaks.

Get AppleCare.
I've had 2 motherboards, 2 batteries, one CD/DVDmodule, most of the casing, the infrared port lens and those little rubber feet replaced for free under AppleCare over the life of my PBG3.... (but then it shouldnt have really needed all that should it?)
The main benfit is you can call them up and they go through very methodically and solve any software/hardware issue to get you up and running again, and if it isnt resolvable over the phone, they pickup your machine and fix it, free. It's worth it.
3rd party hardware or RAM doesnt void the warranty, but they may ask you to remove it during any problem diagnosis.

Get a 3 year warrenty, and do it through the company you work for. Thats what I did. Motherfuckers thats one for me.
