sound good?

I'm going off to college come fall and was looking to get a nice laptop. i found that i like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16834220307 but it has a lot more than i would ever need. I was wondering if this is a good deal or if i would be better off searching elsewhere for a comparable product?

I want a warranty with it for a couple years, and i was wondering if the 2 year limited warranty on parts and labor was enough, or if it would be worthwhile to get the extended warranty for $120. What is included in the extended warranty that isn't in the limited?

I realize these are kind of simple and nit-picky questions so it's fine if they go unanswered, it's not vital but rather just to squander my curiosity.
