Quote - assuming you still want one of their products.
I'm quite disgruntled with their brand at the moment. So I doubt I'll be going the way of another Dell. I thought they were better computers, but apparently not. However, at least they have 24/7 tech support, so I'll give them credit for that at least.
When I'm able, I'll have my desktop tower ripped apart and have my nephew build me a computer. From what I hear it's much cheaper to build a computer than to buy one retail.
All I know is that I'm not in a position right now to fix the laptop or build a new computer, probably won't be for some months. My desktop serves the purpose of general internet surfing and email. But it's even having trouble displaying smilies on this forum, and pictures? Forget it. All I'm seeing for pictures in threads are red X's, and I don't even get a single gallery thumbnail showing. Though I'm glad I kept it, because I can still pester all of you ;) When I got my laptop I was going to get rid of the desktop, but then decided to keep it and use it for storage.
