Who to believe?
Microsoft Word says that the word is extendibility while Mirriam-Webster says it's extendability.
My gut tells me that I shouldn't believe Microsoft. It's usually a safe bet. =)

Dictionary.com says it's extendibility not extendability. Look for yourself, i geave you the links. I know, it's hard to believe..... (sorry for the bashing ryan.)

Right, you're going to trust someone just because they "geave" you some links :p

Dictionary.com strikes me as a little half-assed, almost like it was thrown together and released to the public, unlike say, a Microsoft product.

Why does your commenting system edit out ancor tags? I put in the links, but they're not showing up. Yo shit is broke.

Fixed now. I didn't have 'HTML in comments' checked so that would be why.

Google agrees with MSWord.
Google for "extendability" and you'll get the famous "Did you mean: extendibility" thingie.

Hrm...I may have to change it then. I'd never disagree with Google. =)

On the other hand, it occurs to me that you may have meant "extensibility" rather than "extendibility".

And that would be "Merriam-Webster," btw.
