Yeah, nobody ever needs it, until they need it.Luckily I didn't need it yet.
It's like backups. Take it for granted until it saves your bacon.

I have purchased the surfacebook about a week ago. Upgrade from the Surface Pro 3. I will tell you most people are commenting on the stability only use it in laptop mode. It is a beautiful laptop. The main issue is the wobble. The wobble I mean is utilizing the pen in laptop mode. With my SP3 I would mark pdf and onenote all the time. With my SB the damn thing wiggles and my writing looks like a first grader. very frustrating. I am going to give it about 6 more days (have only 14 days to return) to see if it gets better. Again if I was just going to use it as a laptop I would not care as it is sturdy. But also I would not have paid this much for a laptop only device.
Good luck.
Hi
Thanks for the reply and opinion about your new surface book.
The surface book at the Microsoft store continues to be sold at a discount.
Additionally best buy is offering a $100 student discount coupon in addition to the matched sale price, which I would be able to take advantage of.
Unfortunately I checked with Microsoft and the extended two year warranty is only available when the device is purchased directly from Microsoft either in store or online.
I would only purchase any surface product with the extended two year warranty, based on all the problems surface owners have experienced.
The surface book is still relatively new and I wonder how well the complex hinge and muscle wire screen attachment will performu over time. Both appear to be quite complicated assemblies.
