We purchase and use AppleCare. The general consensus is: worth every penny and the service is exceptional.
I've got an old iBook G4, and its logic board fried about 3 weeks before finals this last semester. I took it to the nearest Mac store (although you can request service online), and they mailed it out to California, replaced the logic board and the after-market ram I had installed, and had it returned to me in 4 days. I was terrified I wouldn't have it to study for finals, but it made it back to me very, very quickly. I've had to invoke my Applecare on one other occasion, but it turned out to be minor. My experience with the service is that is exceptional. I'm looking to get a Macbook Pro sometime in the near future, and I will be getting Applecare with it.
