As has been already said... Don't buy from Future Shop, if you can, buy from the Apple Store or the Apple Store Online. I only say this because they tend to be more knowledgeable at the Apple stores/resellers and can answer any question you may have. FS may also try to get you to purchase some sketchy extended warranty coverage through their own company (don't bother!).

Sidenote: Applecare is nice to have as it will extend your complimentary 90-day support to a full 3 years (this is phone or web chat support). Applecare also extends your limited warranty from one year to three years. The good news is you don't have to buy it right away (which is pretty nice especially if you can't afford it right off the bat). If you can't afford it now, you can buy it down the road as long as it is within one year of date of purchase. Hope that helps, I'm a seasoned Mac vet, been using them since...forever.
