Yup that's my rational with all my electronics purchases. Two year warranty is all you really need. As your said with the bathtub curve example, typically things go wrong in the first 90 days, after that it's smooth sailing.

The one exception is the batteries for 2006 macbook pros. Had 3 batteries all die at 13-14 month stage.
