Cost of extended warranty -v- cost of new PC
Then their is also the fact that an old PC on extended warranty is way behind in Tecnology, 3 years is a hell of alot of advancement in the IT world.
Warranties, especially on PC's, have rather alot of terms or rather get out clauses for the Insurance company, and normally are not worth the paper they are printed on or the cost of warranty.
One of my 'current' PCs has a 4 year old spec. The box cost me £5, the disk £5, and the screen cost me £4.50 (I had to mend it). And I needed a new sound card, so that cost £2.50. And a new mouse, 50p. I think an extended warranty would have been more than that!
