My brother was in the process of buying a new laptop for the business. He decided to purchase one from Dell, right before he clicked the "purchase" button he decided to talk to a rep real fast to ask about Wi-Fi with the laptop. This is probably the most hilarious customer support i've seen. This dell guy is a complete moron. Download the PDF attachment and look at my brothers' conversation with this guy.

You are aware that you can just turn the connection off in Windows, right?

As far as I know, Dell doesn't outsource its tech. support (well, at least it doesn't in Canada).

That is not a surprise. I've actually had a customer support worker ask me what I meant by the term "hard drive" when I asked him a question about the connector on it. Most of the time you can plainly tell that they are reading out of a script and have actually little to no experience in what they are doing.
Dell, sucks.

This isn't related to Dell, but I had a previous ISP tech try to convince me that the reason for my network outage is because I switched CAT5 and that CAT5 remembers the IP of the computer so I can't do that. And, yes, he was for real.

I can only advise you to go Acer. Mine is 2 years old now and never had a problem. Just be sure that you take one your distributor has in stock as ordering a laptop at Acer's is like waiting for ACK to say something that makes sence: it takes a very long time.
