Just phoned Apple, and because I bought AppleCare it had to go from Cork to Luxembourg to have the AppleCare put in the box. WHAT THE FU.... I thought I was buying a bit of paper saying I had AppleCare, I didn't think my iMac would be sent on a sodding holiday! She said I should probably still get it this week, but her closing line was 'good luck'.
Great.
Great.
