Dell have been killed by Acer in the PC/Laptop/netbook sector.
I have to say, buying new business PCs and laptops used to be a matter of which dell to buy, not which make, but nowadays Dell hardly feature in our purchasing.
They are still strong in the server marketplace though.
The main reason we still sell Dell for our business systems is the warranty aspect, never had an issue with Dell's business side of support, however Acer's support is shocking!
Oh dear how times change............poor Dell..............NOT!
Dell needs to make itself competitive. Their machines are lackluster and not really all that great value. In fact, the only Dell machine I've had a remote interest in possibly buying is the Mini 10v, and that's just because it's a Linux netbook (still with the crappy-ass 945 IGP though, which has put me off).

One of the main reasons I bought a Dell in the first place was for continuing support for my machine from qualified staff not from some telephone exchange with a sales person not having a clue what a SATA HDD is...
I had always assumed that Dell was the Ryanair of PC retailers. So has Dell got more pricey or has everybody else come down to their pricing? I'm assuming that it must be about pricing because given the choice between Dell or HP then surely everyone would go for the brand with the higher quality reputation???
As soon as Dell make their first Ultrasharp 24" LED monitors with a decent range of sockets and features I'll be buying... which Im hoping wont be too long as their standard LED monitors are already on the shelves.
Couldnt care for their PC's. My own brand are much better ;o)
