Welp, looks like my next hardware isn't gonna be Dell ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I got fucked by them over a decade ago. Naively bought an Alienware for college. Burned out two motherboards on it while it was under warranty which they replaced. Naturally it burned out a third one outside of my warranty window which they refused to help with unless I paid them half the value of the laptop. Told them no thanks, instead Iโll tell everyone I know that their hardware is garbage.
My old dell server hardware is surprisingly crap as well
I've gone through 4 PSUs in the last 5 years
Surprisingly? Not sure.
IMO it's a bit surprising
I'd expect a company to at least sell decent hardware to their enterprise customers but I guess not in this case
If it breaks, you can just sell them more ๐คทโโ๏ธ
