Dell laptops can be by far the cheapest ( < $500) so you get what you  
pay for. Nothing intrinsically wrong with Indian tech support. If it  
bothers you ask to speak with a supervisor, most of them are in Round  
Rock, TX.

My own Dell has fried the power supply and hard drive and the display  
developed an odd bright spot, but after three years keeps plugging  
along. Not exactly a ringing endorsement...more like getting 200,000  
miles from a Yugo.
