Aiyah. Plain and simple. Every laptop brand has its faults.

There's no such laptop brand that nobody has ever said that they don't have any problems with. You will hear people complaining about Dell, Acer, HP... Even Mac! Haha.

It just depends on a person's luck. Sometimes during the assembly of the product it might not be fitted correctly and nobody can tell that it is until it dies. Just your luck lah if you got the better one or the worst one hahaha.

Having said that, Dell didn't give me much problems. The only problem I had was with the keyboards, which I admit I am a bit rough with my fingers.

And as for the service, Dell Malaysia is great. My keyboard needed replacement and a technician came over the very next day. I don't know about Dell Australia tho.

Cheers :)

If you search the net or ask any MAC user, if given the choice they'll never go back to Windows. No worries of viruses, spyware, crashes, drivers for periperals, etc.

I only use Windows-based PC at the office because the don't have MAC OS.

Oh that is really sucks! I never expect Dell to have such a lousy after sales service and the Aussie operators need to be sent for refresher course on how to deal with customers' complaint. What happened to their customer service's service? SUCKS man!

The best notebook is actually Toshiba. Dell, HP and ACER are blood sucker brand. They are expensive for nothing! So far I have not heard anyone complaining about Toshiba! Try it out! And i am sorry to hear about your notebook illness!

My friend sells PC, Notebook and do programming, he recommended Toshiba to all his clients!

My XPS 1330 has been fixed for several times. Recently the motherboard has been replaced because of NVIDIA GPU failure. For those having NVIDIA graphic card in their DELL desktop, need to update their BIOS as well. The defects might be
Multiple images, Random characters on the screen, Lines on the screen, No video
Details could be found in these link:

2008-08-23T16:51:00.000+08:00

OMFG this is so like my experience with DELL. To cut it short THEY LOST MY LAPTOP, then THEY TOLD ME THEY WEREN'T SURE THEY COULD REPLACE IT, then WHEN THEY DECIDED TO REPLACE IT, THE FUCKING CUSTOMER SERVICE REP WANTED ME TO BE GRATEFUL .. "WE ACTUALLY EXPEDITE YOUR NEW ORDER SO WAT ELSE U WAN?"
WTF.

I had to keep calling them up to find out what was going on - they didnt know it was LOST in the first instance until I called up to ask them why the fuck hadnt my laptop arrived.
and their entire customer service group is so mentally challenged - could never get any freaking sense out of any of them. Bloody morons. I had 8 phone conversations with them all in all and at the end of each one I felt like I had just cracked my skull on a brick wall built by their sheer stupidity.

2008-08-23T09:19:00.000+08:00

I wanted to get Dell soon too.. I heard the service is pretty good in Malaysia though.

But still.. I'll reconsider after reading this post !!

2008-08-23T02:20:00.000+08:00

Well, DELL sucks, quite a breaking news for me as i've heard more yays from users before than nays. after reading the comments i can summarize this much:

-DELL's after sales service being best in US, good enough for most part in M'sia, & pretty much sucks in Aus

-Local warranty is good for most of the time but don't bet on international ones

-Best notify DELL via email than through phone, especially when it concerns matters internationally, saves you the time, money, not getting BSed

-DELL like using cheap parts (well how else do you explain them being able to sell a gamer lappie at 4k??)

-Most problems happen with the HD

I myself am not a DELL user, though i plan to get a DELL after graduation 2 years later, which by that time, this Acer that i'm using now is expected to be either dead or half dead. just hope that if my DELL at that time crashes for some reasons, i won't have to face shit like this.

2008-08-23T02:02:00.000+08:00

I totally understand how you feel. Had a similar encounter while using a older inspiron model a few yrs back.. U know the worst part? Dell replaces your so called brand new (faulty) hdd with a refurbished one.. not a new one. :P~~ I mean I paid good money for a(so called top of the range) Inspiron with so called brand new parts inside and they gave me back a 2nd hand replacement part.. I was really dissed off.

All the back and forth and waiting.. made me wish I bought a HP or a Toshiba.. one of them super tough terrain ones.. but then.. those can't play games. sigh. Guess its like malaysia politics.. take the lesser of 2 evils.

2008-08-22T14:58:00.000+08:00

Hey Nicole, I feel for you.

I had a Dell PC previously and its motherboard got fried. The stupid tech that came over only changed the motherboard but didn't check to see if the sound card or LAN card was fine!

Plus, he had re-installed Windows XP without providing the serial number. So I had to live with the annoying "Windows is not validated" shit for a while.

Dell may be known for a lot of things but good service is DEFINITELY not one of them.
