Like the 2 years of bad capacitors, remember? Honest companies like HP & Apple actually admitted there was a problem and worked with their customers/clients to fix it. Dell trained their employees to play down the problem and tell customers it wasnt Dell's fault or responsibility.
Buy continuing to support Dell you are only prolonging the problem. This is the same company that tried to move their Enterprise support to India too, something the other big name PC makers didnt dare consider. There is a reason why Dell lost its spot as #1 PC maker, people hate them with a passion.
Im not sure where you're getting your information. if its from experience, that it sucks that yours is so completely contrary to mine, but your sweeping accusation of not standing behind anything doesn't hold true in my experience. While I do deal with them a majority of the time related to their business line, I still do deal with them for personal machines as well. Hell, I got a watercooled quad core extreme machine rmaed out entirely, and got it replaced with a scratch/dent i7 alienware for free.
As I said, you don't have to agree with me... but I can promise you 5 years of, for the majority, good experience with dell isn't going to be swayed without very good reason.
