They have a "CompleteCover" warranty for which you pay more. And this warranty is valid only in some countries of Asia.So if u damage your laptop in London you will have to get back to one of these asian countries to get your warranty. But to keep the record straight the cost of the "CompleteCover" will determine wether it is useful to all. Imo a 15% hike in price would be justified. rgds jtd

You need to copy the installation CDs to a server. Then boot your client from the first CD and type "linux askmethod" on the splash screen. Select the appropriate method from the menu. If you select NFS, then NFS should be properly configured on the server to export the installation files that you copied.

Hi, I want to install FC3 but I wanted it to be done online. I was not able to find anything on "http://fedora.redhat.com/" which can guide me to install it online. If anybody of you know how to do that, then please tell me how to proceed. Regards, Manish.

They cover everything but dont protect against arson > or theft. Try getting a scratched LCD replaced from ANY vendor. Or a crashed disk / Mobo if the body is dented or cracked. The warranties cover ONLY manufacturing defects not intentional or accidental misuse or use beyond the rated capacity. Read the fine print in the warranty. rgds jtd
