OK, one back and forth from me. I've been the IT business for over 20 years too
Just wanted to add that if one does get an extended warranty it should be from the manufacturer. That usually also give the tech support that some find useful.
I do agree with you on YMMV though. Like you, I would not buy an extended warranty for a laptop. Mine would be bought from from Lenovo or Dell though...
