i've owned my dell laptop since summer of 2006. luckily it came with 3 years of warranty:

-battery warrantied (didn't hold a charge for longer than an hour after a few months)
-cdrom warrantied (stopped reading, was replaced with a refurb'd drive)
-videocard warrantied (got fried, so they replaced my motherboard too)

this laptop was acting up earlier too. the support rep diagnosed my videocard as being fried again and would have the motherboard replaced + they'd give me a monitor (even though my warranty just expired). however, for whatever fing reason, it's fine now, so i'll cancel the service request.

whatever you do, buy as much warranty coverage as you can. oh and dell.. ha ha.. oh never again.
