In case you haven't seen it, or have forgotten, it seems that Dell was hit especially hard by the faulty electrolytic capacitor fiasco for many years. On top of that, it is alleged that Dell didn't play straight with customers who experienced machine failures (example: Dell to UT Austin Math Department -- "you pushed your machines too hard doing heavy math!"). If you or your school or your business uses Dells, especially the OptiPlex series, this may be of interest: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/29/technology/29dell.html?src=busln
