I have a dell; no problems seem to have arisen from the actual computer in several years of use. |

Dells have lovely computers because you customize them |

Yes and no. I personally have had horrible experiences from Dell, but if you get a good deal, go for it. Though you might want to reformat an install a non-junkware version of Windows after. Or, hey, buy an Ubuntu Dell! |

As far as I know Dell makes (or made) the cheapest laptops anywhere around, which is why I have one of their laptops (serving as my desktop computer too most of the time now). In a year and a half it hasn't given me so much as a hiccup, so I definitely can't complain... yet. Some day it will have to kick the bucket and I'll actually have to wrangle with customer service, but my experience so far has been pretty balmy. |

My Dell laptop has outlasted a lot of other computers out there... but I do believe I was lucky, and took good care of it. Also, Dell laptops have a history of having shitty cooling systems, so if you're gaming, make sure you have plenty of cans of compressed air, and use them once a month. |

I have a Dell. |

Is it just me or does it seem like a dead heat here? |

Well said & done. I bought a Dell 1500 Vostro Notebook. 160 gig hard Drive - 2GB of memory. Nothing major. |

2GB Memory on a laptop isn't at all bad. Care to say how much it set you back? I'm vaguely thinking about getting a laptop, but I'm tempted by various companies so I'm just delaying the decision. |

Good to here your good feedback on some dell longevity. |
|
Did I mention that my old computer was the cheapest computer out there at the time. My start up costs were tremendous, so I cut what I felt I could. |
|
I have a dell and it's the worst computer I've ever owned. The problems are endless. I'm never getting another dell. |
|
Taadaaa oh boy. |
|
I have a Dell Mini 9. It's way better than the eee 701 I used to use, has had Ubuntu reinstalled on it at least 3 times (upgrades, not a required reinstall) and I take it everywhere I go. Cannot complain about it at all. Not bad considering it was second hand. |
