Title: question about Dell comps
Post by: MANBEARPIG. on March 06, 2007, 11:08:33 PM
I heard that Dell notebooks are really shitty and are usually problematic, anyone have any experience with a Dell, would u reccommend a Dell?

im shopping for a new notebook right now so im trying to get some opinions.

I've got a buddy that got a dell notebook but I dont know what kind i'll have to ask him, but so far he's had it a year, and fixed twice, it had bad ram and something was wrong with his harddrive.

for a notebook definetly get an Alienware, I'd stay away from dells in general cause to upgrade them you usually have to always go through them for it. Im building my own pc right now all custom it can kick any dell's ass.

I got a inspiron 6400 (e1505) since januari, and its great. You should never get a desktop system from dell, compaq, hp etc. But dell is known for delivering good notebooks. But like Bramsterdam said, upgrading is a bitch. But its normally not possible to upgrade things from your notebook. So you have to take all the things you want when buying our notebook.

But how much money are you willing to spend? And what do you want to do with it (games, internet etc)?
