Last August I bought a tablet PC (discussed
here). I recently received an e-mail from Lenovo for an extended warranty. The prices seem quite reasonable (there are a number of options).

IOR = onsite repair
NBD = next business day
I usually don't buy extended warranties, but some of these seem like they could be a good deal, especially since a tablet PC has more things that can go wrong than a regular laptop (i.e. touch screen, rotating hinge).
I think the original computer cost was around $2500.
I don't know the details of the warranties.
What do you think?
