DELL SUCKS. PERIOD. I purchased a skin through them for my laptop about 2 years ago – they were supposed to give me a coupon code proving I paid for it and I was supposed to order it from another site – NEVER got the code, NEVER could get Dell to acknowledge they RIPPED ME OFF and charged me for it w/o giving me the code and NEVER got a refund.
I HATE DELL.

Agreed. I would have bought 2 of them for my daughters that first night I saw them but decided to wait until closer to the 18th. I told Dell they missed out on a sale. From further research I’ve done, Dell evidently has gone downhill with their support over the years. For what it’s worth, AT&T offers Acer and HP netbooks for $149 with 2-year activation. I don’t know if that’s just a cell phone activation or their 3G data service.

Joel- I saw exactly the same ad I called Dell and complained but it didn’t change anything. If the ad hadn’t mentioned that the $149 price was thru 3/18 I would have made my purchase on the second day of the sale. Dell has very poor customer service on this issue. I think they should be obligated to honor promotions as printed.

This deal was supposed to expire 3/18, but it has already been removed and is no longer valid. Two Dell reps told me that it was supposed to have expired on 3/9, which was incorrect according to the banner ad. Yet another rep suggested that supplies had run out. The three folks we talked to at Dell insisted that it was only a 2-day deal, but I know what I saw. I wish I had gone ahead and grabbed one on the one day it was offered. Needless to say, Dell stinks.
