    Which is really nice... But i'm at day 20 right now, and I decided to sleep on it and decide if I really even want the laptop...

    My last dell wasn't a good experience, (inspirion 5150), I had to call them to replace something around once a month, until I didn't bother anymore and lived with the charger that wouldn't work, and the screen tinted cyan etc.

    This is just reliving those experiances. Dell is being really nice now, but they wouldn't give me another 21 days with the replacement, and once I can't return it I'll be just like the rest of the poor fools who live on technical support, buying $300 warrenty extensions... (like I did before)

    I love the laptop if it would just work. Its a pity because I got a great deal on it too.
