    ok Ive had my g73jh bst7 from best buy for awhile and while not getting the best buy one ( I can if I want, im within y time to add it) but its VERY expensive, Ive never used squaretrade but heard alot of them.

    Has anyone used them, how is the service? I can get a 3 year for 129.99 does not cover accidental/liquid thats an extra 140$ but Im not worried about dropping it etc..

    whats everyones opinions on warranty's?

    That's not expensive for a 3 year warranty. The only difference between an -A (accidental 1 year regular 2 year) and an -X (no-ADW and 1 year warranty) is the warranty and ~$200 dollars.

    well im just debating to add it. I never transport my laptop and if i do its VERY rarely. Just thinking if I will need it for if my mobo fails etc...

    I typically hold onto a laptop for about 2ish years. And I am also buying a netbook soon, (possibly one of these ultra portable ones or a tablet).

    Does asus have good service?
