It’s sad to hear that Dell has taken a back seat. In my mind, I have seen them on the forefront for quality computers since their emergence into popularity. It’s interesting to hear the other side.

Apple has certainly captured my imagination with the iPad. I would like one, but I am not an Apple fan because the interface seems so user-unfriendly to me. But it is hard to switch to another OS when you’re used to the one you’ve used for 10+ years.

When are they going to come out with the roll-up flatscreen and keyboard, making the size of your laptop the size of your phone?

Interesting point, Jennifer. What would you hope Apple might do as a reward for loyalty?

I don’t know about Dell – whether they sell computers and servers because they are cheap or whether there’s some blush of brand loyalty. With Dell’s lousy customer service and warranties, I cannot image the latter.

I take your point, about Dell, that is. However, on the other side, I have to say that Apple has never, to my knowledge, done anything to acknowledge or reward its long-term customers, most of whom stuck with Apple through a lot of lost opportunities in software and applications. I don’t know if Dell does anything for its loyalists.
