If you click the Apple in the menu bar and select "About this Mac" click "more info" and in the hardware overview, there will be a serial number listed. Copy and paste that into here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do and it'll tell you if you're covered by AppleCare or if your machine has been registered with Apple yet.

MacRumors if you can handle the moaning about unannounced product releases.

Obviously this one 
Personally I don't use MacRumours. The fanboyism on this forum is far more tolerable than MacRumours. The only other forum I use for Apple stuff is Apple's own discussion boards. And only when I have to. For the same reasons I don't use MacRumours.

I picked up a brand new sealed MacBook Pro 13" 2010 from an auction site for £800 delivered the other month 
Can't put it down, put Windows 7 boot camp partition on but have never used it so deleted it the other week
Enjoy your new purchase

You got a good deal there.
Im still waiting for mine - Royal Mail special delivery clearly isnt that special
It's been posted from London to Herts and apparently because of the snow theres a back log.So annoying.
On my MBP now and wowsers! 
Cant believe i didnt make the switch earlier!
The person who i bought it off gave me the receipt too, he paid £999 3 months ago, i got it more than £200 less
No Apple care though sadly.

How can it not have applecare? I thought they were close to 1K new so was it second hand when he got it?
Have you checked the warranty status online in that case?
Their great aren't they

Oh you meant extended Applecare anyway?
I can't I'm afraid I just read here and play with it
Someone one here might be able to point you in the right direction though

No worries, i seem to be picking things up fairly quickly. Seems to be a shortcut for everything!
Actually quite liking Safari as a browser - am yet to use firefox on it and see no reason to at the mo.
Loving it
