This is probably not a new concept: why would you want to line Dell's pocket even more with an extended warranty? I suspect they have at least a 60% profit margin with those warranties.
It's been my exp. that the standard warranty is more than enough. I've had 7 laptops in my life and none needed the extended given the owner treats the computer with "normal" care.
If anything is going to fail, the majority of technical failures will fall into the first few weeks. And anything else will be over-covered by the 1 year warranty.
You are already buying a ~2k laptop, why would you bet on its failure?
Unless you live in a warzone, plan on using the comp. as a doorstop, are accident prone, or have money to burn---think twice about that extended warranty.
