Martinsville, Ohio | Never found a desktop bargain, good luck! From one of my techie's: "Please note the life span you get from the machines I have built for you.
For a Dell cut that in half. Add a guy from India who doesn’t speak English. = Not a very good deal.
Dell is poisoning the minds of uneducated shoppers. By their high end marketing techniques ( If only they put that much effort in designing their systems)
Some things to know about Dell
1.) Most Power supplies are not UL approved ( AKA battery and charger recalls on over a million laptops )
a. If you want a fire hazard in your home buy a candle. They are cheaper
2.) Adware and Spyware comes pre installed ( They only thing that is free is the advertisement they load on it )
3.) Processors and hard drives have a one year warranty (Dell uses other manufactures part most of the time not following recommended specifications on its use and installation. (Ex: Intel processors have a 3 year warranty not 90 days like dell puts on their system and since they are installed with a passive heat sink this voids any warranty with Intel.)
Good and Bad of Both custom built and Big Name PC manufacture
