Re: (rant) PC World, why does it exist?
i never sead they were crap, from me experience they do ok with reliability a part from my dell desk top pc that i had blew one PSU 2 ram slots and 2 ram modules about 2 weeks out of warranty.
but there business lap tops are hard as nails i have had mine for 3 years, droped it down stairs and not missed a beat. and is on 24/7 ok it gone through 2 charger one battery and the disc drive is fuba but it cost me £200 and is great for what i use it for.
and YC ever think about the reason the dell's are so cheep ? because the parts that are used are very very basic. the PSU's can just run the system where as mine has 250w+ over head, it might have 4gb of ram but its running at 400mhz un like mine at 1200mhz . comes with a basic graphics card.
for me the biggest point is you cant over clock them, mines got a hefty OC and runs faster than some of the much more expensive dells that are even more expensive than mine was new.
