your home warranty fund seems like a great idea until your house floods and destroys 10 of your gadgets at once.

Impressive if your sense of responsibility can magically influence the factory so there are no manufacturing defects on all your devices too.

There is no advantage to waiting to buy AppleCare. The warranty length is from the date of purchase of the device not the purchase of the warranty. When you wait, all you are doing is cheating yourself out of the unlimited phone support in the first year.

It is interesting to me that while for less than what you paid for a Mac Plus with a 9" b+w screen in 1988 ($2500) you can get a fully loaded 27" iMac, but somehow in the military hardware world the replacement for the old tech is always costs at least 10 times as much and is harder to maintain and consumes more fuel.
