Warranty pack - Buy or not buy, that's the question!

Hi,

In december, my one year warranty on my Vaio A215M will be finished.

Sony sells a warranty extension pack for two years, which costs a lot of money: 265 euro.

Now, I was wondering: is it worth the price? I mean, let's say I will have some troubles with my notebook, after the warranty has expired. How difficult is it to repair ir yourself or, to find someone who can repair it for you? Can you easily replace a CD/DVD station, harddisk, etc. by yourself? Or is there no other choice than contacting Sony for it (who will probably charge a whole lot of money)?

Yeah really I'd like to wait for the dust to settle on dual core and see if it's worth the time.

if you say you hear noises from the fan and drives i would difinatly buy the extra cover think about it as kee-lo said the parts are going to be hell for anyone to get. and the cost of one repair will pay for itself, say you didnt buy it and it broke down?

Okay, thanks for the replies!

I think I'll buy it (and will have to survive by eating dry bread the following months, to get it paid). :wink:
