I answered your question I have a monster Dell, the Precision M6400. I will tell you what I like and dislike. It is overall a good machine in term of power. Large screen, good graphic power for a laptop, good processing power, relatively complete configuration.
However, it has several bad defaults:
- The keyboard is crap and is breaking too often. Already 2 keys are missing and I need to replace it. From beginning, I had problem with keyboard.
- The lower part of the laptop related to keyboard was definetly wrongly made. One of the RAM was having a bad contact when I got the laptop and letters 3,E, F, V and M,L, P,- were not working.
- The alim pack is massive, much too heavy.
- The laptop itself is too heavy
Globally, I like Dell, they are very robust especially knowing the working condition I am in (fluctuating power, sand, very high humidity, heat etc...). You don't buy Dell for esthetic, they are exactly the opposite of Mac.
