Clive, I should not have made that remark here, it to of topic and probably scares a lot of people using dell machine :-) Minimal service requests is exactly what it says, make sure owners do not call the service desk or make service requests and when they do reduce the time spent to the minimum. Things that they do - Use special function reduced hardware (because it reduces cost) - Use a driver because they know that one works, not the latest / fastest. - Restore tools that reset the whole machine to factory setting (sorry for the missing data) - Use design for assembly technics that unfortunately reduce repairability / upgrade possibilities I will stop here before it gets to technical. How do I know this? I have been in the business for over 20 years now building, designing and selling computer hardware. Agian lets stop this here.
