Whats that supposed to mean? Dell makes fine computers for what they are. In an environment when computer technology is changing very rapidly, there is no reason to not buy a low priced solution. And Dell's aren't always the cheapest in any case, for example, if you pay retail, it is the same price as the other major manafacturers.

I'd rather keep a dell for 2 years and pay 50-60% now, and then donate it, get a tax deduction, and buy another, newer technology dell in 2 years then to buy an IBM or whatever you may be thinking and keep it for 4-5 years. There warranty is fine.

I've been building computers for 12 years. I stopped 5 years ago because dell was really churning out some deals where it would cost me more to build it myself. That, plus a free warranty on parts (if a mb frys, etc.) makes it a no brainer for me.
