I had a Dell Precision M4800 for like a decade. It was a really good machine. A few minor complaints over the years, but overall, pretty solid machine. Not all their computers are good computers, some they are certainly capable of making some.
There was a time long ago when Dell computers had a great reputation for performance and longevity as you describe, and their support systems were the envy of the computing world. It would be great to see a return to that business model, though I wouldn’t put money on it. It’s still good to see literally any company point out that, hey, the universal benefit of AI as it’s being sold to us today seems like a fantasy, and we have a lot of evidence now to support that beyond niche applications, it’s not saving any element of society. Also maybe it’s good to listen to consumers, actually… 9/10 CEOs hate this one trick…
