DELL, What You Thinking?
My wife ordered a new Dell notebook
online and I was curious as to what model she had ordered
and it's spec's. Me being a self-proclaimed geek and all, ha
ha ha. So when we got it, a new Dell Inspiron mini 10v,
model# 1011 notebook. First thing I saw was that it had no CD or DVD-Rom drive.
It came with a "Operating System Restore" CD and a "DELL
Drivers Restore CD", LOL. Now how strange is this. I
couldn't believe this, Dell what was you thinking?
The site she had got it on gave her
some additional software on a 2GB SD card for free. Now
that's a plus, since it does have a SD Card Reader. But
getting back to Dell's CD's, that's just unbelievable to me
that Dell, would send CD's when the notebook has no
CD/DVD-Rom drives. There has to be some mistake on Dell's
end, I thought they would have at least placed a factory
restore partition on the HDD, and ofcoarse they wouldn't do
that. That would have been to easy for us buyers.
Now what Dell, did do was to give
us:
Meaning I assume, that Dell will come to
our home and restore this miniature wander of ours back to
it's original factory state when ever we need it for the 1st
year. But my question is what about after that? Will Dell
charge us a fee to come to our home or will we have to send
it back to dell? Well we all know the answer to those No
Dell will not come to our house and fix it without charging
us or we will have to send it in to dell for repair and
still pay a charge + shipping.
Concluding that if you the readers are
planning on getting one of these, make sure you get an
external CD/DVD-Rom drive to go with it. Otherwise you will
be left out in the cold.
