    Their PCs are shit too. I’ve owned two DELLs in my lifetime; on both PCs their stupid proprietary motherboard failed… twice. Pissed me off so much that I learned how to build my own computers.

      Thank you.

      I keep telling people not to buy Dell computers and they keep saying they’re fine.

      No they’re not they’re terrible, I’m only the IT guy in this company why listen to me?

      On some of the computers they make you cannot depopulate the RAM without removing the graphics card, unless you have the world’s thinnest creepiest fingers, because it’s too close to the EM shield to get your fingers in there to press the plastic clip.
      It’s not hard to fix, it’s only four screws, but seriously, why do I need to screwdriver to remove/add ram?

      Upvoting this. I too had an ( expensive ) Dell XPS laptop and the MOBO was replaced within 6 months. After which it still didn’t function properly, but at least it only took 4-5 seconds rather than 12 to start a fucking browser.

      Battery died after 4-5 years. Has about 10 mins of battery after fully charging it. I’m never buying their garbage again.
