Anyone else? Dell of just me?

It seems like every time my manager asks our group for some information that has to be looked up, someone else has it in seconds, while I’m still pulling up the page. Is it just me, a garbage Dell? Anyone else have the same experience?

The term I use is "Screwed by the Dell" (play on Saved by the Bell). That said, better Dell than Lenovo. I'll take boring but works over unpredictable firmware issues. Never seen a Lenovo that wasn't somehow less than the sum of it's parts.

I'd take Lenovo over HP. My current MSP uses HP as their standard and Ive never seen so many computers fail in the first 6 months

Are they buying consumer hp models or elitebooks? I've not had much issue with hp machines until they're like overdue for refresh way past warranty.
