“Social Media at Work”

“I do this work professionally. Spyware and viruses aren't Dell's fault, as much as I think that Dell could do better in some areas”.

“I always experienced good service and in my opinion, they've mastered their business model including their tech support services. They are reliable and consistent”.

“Viruses are Your issue, not Dell's. Anyone with a computer knows the company that sold you the computer is not at fault....You use it...be careful how you use it. I have had several issues with My Dell XPS, but they were on it Instantly, the customer service was fantastic”.

“Blaming Dell for Spyware and Viruses? Stay off sites you know you shouldn't be going to :)”
