Also, my experience with their "exceptional care" program ("a replacement overnight!") is unpleasant. It's a major hassle just getting in touch with their support people (so what else is new?), and the turnaround is more like a week. And I would rate their technicians as Barely Acceptable, so don't bother with the Extended Exceptional Care contract.
