Mac peeps, what am I missing?

[Ghoulish Delight]

If I get Applecapple care, it will be for the replacement aspect. I'm sure my old trouble shooting skills will return to me with use, and if not I have many many people I can count on for help. But, as mousepod points out, all it takes is one minor hardware problem to make it worth it (like I said, my monitor needed to be replaced twice under my old Applecare, it was a damned good thing I had it).

We have no plans on doing anything particulary intensive with this. Gaming and simple photoshop work (for Mouseadventure shirts, of course) are the most demanding things I'll be asking of it, and it appears to have the specs to handle those. And considering how much desk space will be saved, a few extra cables and external peripherals hardly seems like they'd be a big deal. Thanks for the heads up on the noise issue, Kevy. I wonder if the extra volume the 20" affords mitigates that at all, or if they've perhaps improved the fan since you got yours.
