can be covered for 1-year with the "EXTENDED WARRANTY."

Automatic upgrade from 1-year to 3-year warranty on all hardware (except CPUs), unless specified otherwise.
Automatic upgrade from 14-days warranty to 1-year on all unboxed CPUs.
What does NOT "EXTENDED WARRANTY" cover?
Special items with a limited time warranty such as "Close Out" products, refurbished, returned from customers, and used.
A Wall Street Journal survey found that the average age of computers in 1998 was 2,2 years, while in 2002 this number is
projected to be 3,3 years. This means that we use our computers 50% longer then we did just 5 years ago. We hope that
this new service will help our customers to increase reliability of the equipment purchased from CompuVest.
