According to my simple calculations, 72% of logic boards would have to 
die within the first year to make a $90 "insurance premium" on a $125
item statistically worthwhile.  I find it *** extremely *** hard to 
believe that the percentage is that high. (I have had my Mac for 3
years with no problems ever.)  I think Applecare is an incredible
ripoff!!!!
