[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1224011, member: 59143"] Hey man, you can spread as much of your logic around as you'd like, it makes no difference to me. We obviously have very different opinions and prerogatives on this subject matter so... I'd say there's really no point in you trying to convince anybody that they're wrong for doing what they feel is right. What I do take a bit of offense to, is you calling people paranoid and asserting that the only reason someone would ever purchase an extended warranty for an computer that can cost a couple thousand dollars, is that they've fallen prey to a disease and are gullible. I also like how you tried covering your bases by stating that it's okay to purchase a warranty for a car, simply because of the cost of out of pocket repair to warranty ratio. But this doesn't stand up IMO, simply because everyone has a different idea of what cost effectiveness means. Also, you make a poor point above. All it takes is one bout of bad luck. This whole premise is based upon luck of the draw. As I said before, I'm really glad (sincerely) that you've never had an issue which caused you to have to fork over about a thousand dollars for a new logic board after a year... but if you did have to, you'd then be sorry for not having spent a couple hundred instead of a grand. Anyway.... enjoy. Doug [/QUOTE]
