I won't bore with all the gory details but I ordered a Dell PC which arrived
with defective floppy ... couldn't get it fixed in spite of numerous written
communications ... finally refused charge on my personal Visa ... Dell never
responded to Visa so charge was permanently removed... still no response
from Dell so I packed it up and notified Dell I wanted RMA ... Dell offered
phone authorization but refused to put it in writing ... took nearly six
months to get a _written_ return authorization indicating full credit for
machine ... returned machine as soon as I recieved written authorization ...
Dell received machine ... Dell hired lawyer to demand around $1000
"depreciation" ... lawyer went away when I provided detailed written
documentation ... Dell hired another lawyer ... he also went away when
provided detailed documentation.

Not only did this whole process consume many hours of my time but the stress
of dealing with several very unpleasant "customer service" supervisors and
two very unpleasant lawyers greatly distracted me from my work. Thank God I
did everything by the book, used a personal credit card (which gave me
protection of consumer credit laws), and had everything in writing. This is
not a company with which you want to have a problem!!!
