Question Why does everyone hate dell PCs?

I've seen a lot of threads with hatred for dell computers, i brought a brand new dell Dimension desktop PC with reasonably good specs for £500 last month and i haven't had any problems with it or with the customer services. It even plays all of my PC games like flight Sim x perfectly well. So why are people hating dell?

Dell just uses cheap, low end parts and they load there computers full of free trials that bug the hell out of us.

I just uninstalled all of the crap that came with the pc... other than that, performance-wise it's fine.
