JD,
Re: What do you think about CompleteCare?
I think that it makes sense for many people and more specifically, for companies. For example, my friend's boyfriend went through several Dell Notebooks. They were the property of his company, loaned to him because he traveled about 75% of the time. He took his Notebook on Business trips. But, he dropped his Dell Notebook repeatedly and basically abused each one that he had. The company kept having to replace his Notebook because he was so hard on each one. Since the Notebooks were not actually his, he did not really care. So, for a company, the service plan makes sense, I think. I don't think he is the only irresponsible person in the world, unfortunately. Think of the money that this company spent in buying him several Dell Notebooks. By the way, she broke up with her boyfriend when she realized how irresponsible he was, which I think was very smart. And the company soon figured out the same thing. He went through about 5 Notebooks in two years.
My Dad has always advised me not to buy extended warranty plans, but I think I would look into the Dell Complete Care plan myself. And, I think that this is another value-added plan for Dell. They are making smart moves right now.
What do you think? LW
