 Big Problem Dealing with Dell July 19, 2010
Chun O. Hall
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I placed an order with Dell for the inspiron 1545 after reading the CNET review, and then searched the reviews on Amazon; well the opinions on this website are usually dead on. After having read the poor reviews I called back Dell less than 24 hours after placing the order (on a weekend) and the representative repeatedly attempted to tell me that it was too late to cancel the order, in spite of the fact it would not be shipped for another week. Now I have been around for a while and that just didn't seem reasonable. I kept asking to speak to a supervisor and several times(X7) in a row he repeated stated that the supervisor would not be able to help, they serve administrative functions???? Finally, he placed me on hold for 5 or 10 minutes only to tell me that the supervisor was busy but that they approved my cancelation. I am writing this review because it is irritating the way they are using this tactics to hold onto a sale. If they are willing to play these games there are real problems with the Dell organization--beware!!! I can just see a young person being intimidated by this approach and in makes me angry. I decided to place an order for a Gateway laptop since I have been very happy with the Gateway desktop I have.

C-DRIFTERS
After searching the internet for a product that I thought would suit our needs I found the item, Dell i1545 on Amzaon.com.
It was relatively easy to work through the Amazon site and purchase the product. Delivery was on time and the product arrived in good condition.
Amazon kept us informed on the delivery status and we felt included.
The product itself is as it was described on Amazon and is currently working very well. The new Windows 7 is easier to get to grips with than when we first started with XP all those years ago.
Kind Regards

 Did I get lucky with mine? June 21, 2010

I bought this in the beginning of May. It's late June and just today the wireless adapter went kablooey. I spent an hour on the phone with Dell trying to isolate the exact issue. They couldn't find what caused it to stop working, so they offered to send out a replacement and then went on to explain how to put it in myself. They will be calling back in a few days to let me know when the part ships and then again to make sure I have it installed correctly.
I did have to call them three times before I got the help I needed, but I'm sure that's probably because their reps are not native English speakers. This frustrates me, but I guess I get crappy service from American reps all the time with other businesses, so why should the outsourced people be expected to be better.
Anyway, I like this computer, it's sleek, it's light, it does the job for my online schooling and playing online java games. This is what I bought it for.
And I must say, if you use your computer on a daily basis, you should always have a backup. Computers are not made like they used to, so your 10 year old Thinkpad may still work, fine, good for you.
I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that this thing makes it a year. Even the dummies at Best Buy said that's about the normal life expectancy.
 low build quality June 21, 2010
M. Walker
I have had this laptop for a year and it has been able to function normally with annoyances that occurred early (i.e. screen can only be positioned at a certain angle, loose connectivity of inputs, etc) small stuff that irks you but the laptop is still functional (too busy and not enough time to handle honestly). Now there are more non-related major internal problems a year later and I find it's just a hassle to deal with Dell at least from my experience. Might be fine if you plan to rarely use it, just don't consider it a wise purchase by any means.
Pay attention to the bad reviews. June 17, 2010

Make sure you read through all the bad reviews before purchasing this piece of garbage. I bought one and it lasted about 4 months and that wasn't even 4 months of even acceptable performance. The Dell Inspirion crashed every 20 mins, even when the OS & ram were upgraded and Dell's support was next to nothing for this product. Again make sure you read the negative reviews on here before buying because you WILL have all the same issues if the laptop simply doesn't die a miserable death right away.
