Never satisfiied, never enough, you all HAD to have something for free. Blamed Dell for YOUR descissions to buy an older unit and then in the end chased them out of the market.

If you bought a new Ford, then went back to the dealer and said "Hey I want the 2008 model, give it to me!!!' You would be laughed out of the dealership.

The "I want something for nothing" crowd here helped convince Dell to give up on this market.

Would you, if you were Dell, REALLY want this crowd as a client? Imagine it, if they did come out with an X60V, all the X51 owners would be clammering for a free upgrade. So they chose to avoid selling to a bunch of whinners who would demand free new PPCs.

You, WE, all did this to ourselves. How many posts where there here on how to get Dell to give you a X51 for free?

Did you work for Dell making PPC?

If that was the case then the Dell statement would have made some reference to it..

Actually This post probably is closer to the truth

Haven't been able to work out the vitriole here,until now. Whining is not what most ax users do, the word "purr" comes to mind.
