    I was thinking about getting an extended warranty on my dv7 laptop which i just bought from HP (on its way eventually).. I think i have the standard one year warranty.

    I'm not even sure if HP will let you add on extended warranties either up to the 21 day period or the 1 year standard period (if bought through them)?

    Does mack sell anything.. anything with accidental damage?

    Wondering if this is worth it.. ie: getting accidental damage from HP.. anyone used this before.. if you drop it and it cracks/breaks, do they really replace it? (i think it was $250).

    Thanks
