Experience will tell you something or the other does go wrong in 3 years (in a desktop or notebook), and when it does, you can't buy the parts for a notebook in lammy (like you would do for your desktop) - You will have to go back to the Vendor, and he is going to skin you alive

And about the Dell all cover warranty, it even covers you feeding it pepsi / coke / tea / coffee or any beverage of your choice. :rofl: Dropping it on the floor is also covered. "Accidental Damage" is the term used, I know of two people who got caught in the mumbai floods and had their lappys replaced. Try beating that.:clap:
