That's quite ironic, considering you're a little child

You still haven't explained who those 'pros' are

I find that HP and Compaq suck more than Dell. At least Dell provides FREE phone support even after the warranty is expired.
Couldn't have agreed more. Compaq? I had to send my laptop in 6 times before they found that dead CPU fan (which I found before the first time I sent it in )

Anyways, go ask any company that uses servers. I know a guy who said that he had more HP/Compaq's breakdown then Dells (servers).

And he used to work at Dell. He was the guy who helped the computers burn-in. He said they put them in a heated room for 24hrs.

Of course the pros are not gonna choose Dell! That wasn't really smart. Dell is perfect for people who you call "children". People who as voyager said, don't know the inner parts of a computer.

Lol @ g25racer. Seriously, are you 10? Tell me the truth, I'm actually quite curious to see if your age matches your maturity level.

I chose Acer and HP. Mainly cause I've owned an HP, it worked awesome for 3 years with no problems whatsoever. I currently own an Acer, had it for a couple months now, no problems so far. If Dell was on the list I'd chose it too.(for laptops at least)
