    I'll try to answer most of your questions:

    1. Can't help you with the warranty question.
    2. You do have the 21 day return policy.
    3. It's dell's choice with how they'll make the situation right if there is something significantly wrong with your computer.
    4. I have both a dell 12" and an hp 17" -- hard to compare the two sizes since they both have their positives and negatives. I wish I could have a 17" with the weight and power usage of a 12" -- impossible currently.
    5. It looks like you don't have bluetooth, but you can always purchase it for <$50 and install it yourself.
