That's good to know. Heard good things about Toshibas.

I sold a couple of IBM's to people, as I had really good experience with them as a corporate customer. They are just as good for normal people :) I made everyone buy the 3 year extended warranty (48 hour), and wouldn't you know it, it saved at least one person from forking out for a new power supply and a hard drive already. Maybe laptops aren't meant to be thrown in top boxes ??

So was that on standard warranty or did you have to buy an extended package?

That was under the Manufacturers warranty within the 12 months. But the 2 year extended warranty is good too. I got it only because I read thru it and it's an extension of the manufacturers warranty, not an insurance policy warranty where you have to make a claim and have it accepted. it even has a replacement clause in it!!!!! :D

Cool. Sounds like the IBM extended warranty.

I tell people to buy it, as even though it can be $300 for the warranty, a new screen (and I've seen them go on relatively new machines) can cost bucket loads more...
