They have good, basic design. They last forever and are easy to repair. They have everything you need, no extras, but nothing lacking.
They’re like the Platonic Ideal of laptops; you open it up and you don’t say “wow”, you say “Well, this sure is a laptop” – but that’s not an insult; that’s what makes them the perfect all purpose general laptop.
Curious to hear everyone’s thoughts and opinions :)
It’s literally the opposite of everything you’ve just said as an IT pro who has managed endpoints for 15 years. Dell is hot, flaming garbage.
Once had a model with a 100% RMA rate (thousands ordered), and I wasn’t even surprised.
Then there’s the trash bloat apps trying to manage the OS instead of letting it manage itself (Dell Optimizer, etc.) Blech.
