I purchased a laptop from Dell last year. Didnt have the money at the time, but noticed they were offering one of the "Buy now, pay 2008" deals (interest free I might add). So thought, fuck it, might as well just go for it as then I have a year to save up the money.

When I was choosing the spec there was an option to change the color of the lid, but if you chose this option the production would be delayed by up to 20 days. So I decided not to go with this as I wanted it asap. Ordered my spec, and it was suppsed to be delivered within two weeks. Two weeks came and past and still no laptop, so emailed them.

The reply that I got back was:

"The production of your order has been delayed due to a Global shortage of Glass"

!!!!

Thought this was the funniest reason they could have come up with.

That's odd, I didn't know Michael Dell responded to customer e-mails himself.

Little unprofessional? Rofl.
So get a reply from a bot or a generic reply and nobody is happy. Get a reply that is written by a real person and nobody is happy.

Giving you your god damn Microsoft disk so that you can reformat from all the bogged down preloaded bullshit software that comes on your brand new installation of the already slow resource-hog VISTA (because they dont fucking sell you XP anymore)= Fail

"Professional" is a relative thing. Would you rather he spoke to you like a 50 yo man?
