AppleCare is only needed for hardware problems for year 2 and year 3. During year 1 it only offers software support above the normal warranty. So, if you are still under the 1 year warranty call Apple and see what they will do for you. And you can consider buying AppleCare if you are still under the 1 year warranty. --- A great site for editorial cartoons: <http://cagle.slate.msn.com/> <http://www.JackRodgers.com> <http://www.lobatelacscale.com> JackRodgers at earthlink.net
