I personally never get warranties on electronics that I buy. I think it's a waste of money. Typically though, if you buy things with VISA you get an extra year warranty through VISA.

I didn't pay anything for extra warranty. Fortnax was only parts for 1 year but he threw in another 3 years labor because he listed it before the website got changed. But really, the 1 year parts warranty is through Sager, not through Fortnax since he's just a reseller who orders through the Sager website anyway. That said, labour is really nothing because there's no "warranty void" stickers or anything on it and everything is user modifiable and I can do my own work and replace my own parts whether it's the CPU, RAM, harddrive, etc.

The only issues with laptops are tough to deal with are dead motherboards, powersupplies, LCD panels/inverters, etc.
