Also consider what warrenty you get, as in when it goes wrong, what happens, will they come and pick it up, or do you have to stuff it in a box, and send it back to them.
Dell warranty ? :

That's the best joke I've heard all day ! Well, after the one about the [insert well known high street PC retailer] extended warranty.

Dell spend a lot of money on pre-sales ..... fancy website, ruthless sales reps, cheap prices. But when it comes to post-sales, unless you are writing them corporate sized cheques, you are generally , excuse the French.

If you want a serious, business class warranty, that is available to the working classes, it's called an HP Carepack. Now that's what I call service.


(all my own personal experience, your mileage may vary,no I don't work for HP or any other of Dell's competitors blah blah blah .... but I do believe you won't have to look far for others with a similar opinion)
