Extend your coverage to three years of service and expert telephone technical support.
One Number to Call for Help Get direct telephone access to Apple's own technical support group, the people who know your system best. Because Apple creates the computer, the operating system, and many built-in applications, the Mac is a truly integrated system. Just one phone call can help resolve most issues with your Mac because AppleCare representatives can help troubleshoot Apple hardware, the Mac operating system, and many Apple consumer applications, including iLife, iWork, Jam Packs, iChat AV, Mail, Safari, iCal, iSync, AppleWorks, and QuickTime.

With this plan, parts and labor will be covered for three years from the date of purchase of your Apple computer, two years beyond the one-year limited warranty. This plan includes global repair coverage, which can be very important if you travel abroad.

And it sounded like someone my age... more info
Correct Product at Great $$$$$:
Saved about $70 compared to Apple Store. And it does the same thing. Got the code via email and registered with Apple. Took about 3 minutes to complete. GOOD STUFF.
Excellent service, but very pricey:

Ofcourse, you may survive by not spending this extra on insurance and replacing them yourself. But the problem is, factor in the Apple cost for those hardwares + labor you will end up paying more - atleast in my... more info
