I don't typically buy AppleCare for my computers or phones; but I am
very careful with my electronics, and I am technically skilled and
familiar enough with them that I don't mind doing my own out repairs
outside of the default warranty. Even without AppleCare, I've had plenty
of occasions where Apple replaced or repaired things that they clearly
could have refused.
