Dell , why do you change a winning team?

  Dell was not a winner for me.  I had a Dell Optiplex.

Dell and HP and all the rest make many lines of machines. There are inexpensive consumer-grade machines that won't put up with daily commutes and intense usage. There are servers designed for long-term support and predictable although mediocre performance, There are gaming laptops. Finally, there are professional machines that developers would need.

If you buy a sports car, you can't complain it's lousy for hauling manure.

But I can complain that a laser printer not even getting through two toner cartridges in light use is just not good enough.

If you want a professional machine, a Dell Lattitude or Lenovo ThinkPad T or X are the product lines from those two vendors. I'm sure other vendors also have good machines, I'm just less familiar with them.

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
