Get the Asus one. The Dell supposedly has many very major problems.

This is weird coming from Dell, reminds me of IBM in the '90s.

Just sound like reasons to not get a dell.

Which dell did you end up going with?

I mean, someone is, who knows if it is Dell or not. probably Dell doesn't know either, based on their usual software quality.

Good point, I wasn't aware that Dell offers this kind of service, will check that again!

Sounds like just Dell products will be absolute garbage.
