your average dell is a piece of crap. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 28/09/2010 11:10:16 PM
They do make some good computers, but it's not the ones you'll just FIND. Dell's been making their bank off providing companies with cheap computers and that's just what they are. Cheap computers, good for little else in the long run besides day-to-day office tasks.

But this is just my opinion :P every dell I've worked with has made me want to kill babies, so I might be biased...

PS. This is in the US. Maybe international Dell is better? :P

I restart my shitty-shit Dell four to five times a day at work. everynametaken - 29/09/2010 02:51:56 AM 227 Views
Do not buy dell *NM* Roland00 - 28/09/2010 11:18:11 PM 88 Views

I've worked at multiple companies using all Dell. They are shit. everynametaken - 29/09/2010 02:48:13 AM 204 Views

What do you do with your computer? Desktop or Laptop? *NM* Roland00 - 28/09/2010 11:18:57 PM 98 Views
Desktop. I have network access storage for work files so I don't ever use laptops. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:25:15 AM 208 Views
Okay, now what will you use the desktop for? Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:49:15 AM 209 Views
HP Pavilion Elite. ≥8GB RAM. 1TB Memory. 1GB video card. They offer about 3-4 models like that. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 28/09/2010 11:35:32 PM 99 Views

Doesn't the US have companies that let you pick the parts and then they assemble for a small fee? *NM* Helene - 29/09/2010 06:05:09 AM 90 Views
Most of those options were only $20 - $40 more than the base options Tom - 29/09/2010 01:50:20 PM 216 Views
Here is what I would recommend Roland00 - 30/09/2010 05:36:08 PM 252 Views
It gives me an error if I try to set up that configuration. Tom - 30/09/2010 06:19:34 PM 217 Views
Don't worry about that then Roland00 - 30/09/2010 07:09:30 PM 199 Views
I would also recommend the HP Elites Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:50:31 AM 207 Views

You might like a Sony BlackAdder - 28/09/2010 11:43:56 PM 218 Views
Sony machines, especially their laptops, are vastly overpriced in my opinion. Morgawse - 28/09/2010 11:55:13 PM 199 Views
If you're looking purely at specs, yes that's true BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 04:36:52 AM 201 Views
I'm fairly sure that Sony no longer makes normal "desktops" Brian - 29/09/2010 12:58:00 AM 229 Views
Correct Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:52:17 AM 214 Views
That's what I thought. Brian - 29/09/2010 02:54:20 AM 244 Views
hmm, alright then BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 02:37:59 AM 198 Views
Yeah it bummed me out too. Brian - 29/09/2010 02:52:28 AM 219 Views
Re: Yeah it bummed me out too. BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 03:39:52 AM 278 Views
I've found Sony to be frustrating to deal with. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:26:33 AM 211 Views
Yeah they've been going downhill BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 02:42:33 AM 209 Views
HP used to be good, but I've been hearing bad things recently. Ghavrel - 29/09/2010 12:58:44 AM 222 Views
What bad things have you heard? Tom - 29/09/2010 01:27:23 AM 221 Views

I had no problem running multiple programs for hours at a time. everynametaken - 29/09/2010 07:11:08 AM 241 Views
I am curious what is your model? *NM* Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:15:09 PM 92 Views
It was a C500 I believe. everynametaken - 02/10/2010 01:30:29 AM 203 Views
I like my HP better than my dell. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:14:39 AM 217 Views
Did the bad computer lick your apples? *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:23:00 AM 92 Views
No, that would be a bad thing. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:34:59 AM 206 Views
But that Dell was the bad computer. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:37:09 AM 76 Views
Hmm. I've just made an amazingly stupid post. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:40:02 AM 202 Views
Crack is wack, yo. Stick to grass. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:41:21 AM 190 Views
Dell sucks more dick than a gay boy at his first Pride event. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:21:06 AM 213 Views
I liked your "like a gay for pay frat boy" euphemism better. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:28:13 AM 213 Views
Well, they can't all be hits and I try not to recycle material too often. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:31:37 AM 197 Views
Re: Dell dick gay boy event. Gaps - 29/09/2010 02:59:38 AM 214 Views
I didn't say he'd do it well. But yes, I believe a significant quantity of pole smoking would occur. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 03:02:38 AM 78 Views

Anything designed by Cyberdyne Systems is the future. *NM* jiggy - 29/09/2010 09:51:56 AM 115 Views
I've heard they have problems with their customer service. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 11:52:25 AM 82 Views
I heard the opposite. They respond quickly and effectively. *NM* Gher - 29/09/2010 03:36:03 PM 88 Views
No customer ever complains twice, eh? *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 03:36:52 PM 81 Views
Nope. Gher - 30/09/2010 03:24:23 AM 194 Views
I really don't have computer advice, b/c I bought the first cheap computer I saw. StarrBecca - 29/09/2010 12:15:11 PM 283 Views
