Extending warranty on X60, please help!!!

Hello, looking to extend the warranty on my x60 model 1709-h6u. I am most likely interested in the 2 yr depot service. Is 2 yrs the longest I can extend, as it the 3 yr in-home just expired? Let me know where the best price can be found besides from IBM/Lenovo directly, any resellers?? Thanks Chris

Re: Help! X60 makes interference noise while using trackstick

I was worried that it might be something under the trackstick, as the keyboard and trackstick work perfectly. I have the 3 year extended warranty and I think it includes onsite service as well as a couple of local providers.

Its making an interference type noise and usually gets worse when I use the trackstick. Any idea what this could be? I don't want to bring it to the shop if its a...

yeah I was looking at t60 in the same range with similar specs so I decided to go with the smaller unit, the t60p i wanted with the better graphics and a slightly larger hd was going to be 540 and I figured for $400 (a steal) I would try the x60 and see how it works for me size wise and so far I am ...
