call us and we will replace it with a few tests (over the phone) as long as you are under warrenty... or support.dell.com

Who is "US?" Who are "WE?" Are "We" misrepresenting ourselves here?

Is a "warrenty" anything like a "warranty?" Do "WE" know?

This is a support forum. If you don't have anything intelligent to add in the way of support, why don't you shut your yap.

I appreciate the fact that a Dell employee /trainer took the time to post to help out the Dell customer.
Please come by the forums frequently and don't sweat the comment on your spelling typo. The important thing is you came to help the customer; I wish more Dell employees / trainers would do so.
Thank you!
Chim

{For those of us who are more concerned with spelling than intent, the Dell employee / trainer listed his badge # by his name, or maybe you missed that!}

Like the other post; if you can't be positive, then find something else to do with your energy.

negativity is common on sites like this, most people are here to help or be helped not for grammar lessons.. Give US a call US meaning DELL. If it is under WARRANTY then the speaker will be replaced, if not under WARRANTY a generic set of speakers (not altec lansing of course) will run ya from 30-100 with a subwoofer.

If I post a series of numbers behind whatever screen name I choose, does that identify ME adequately as a Dell employee, or as anyone who has a clue what they're talking about as far as Dell policy on warranty service? Unless I'm mistaken, Dell moderators traditionally display a signature which adequately identifies them as representatives and spokespersons of/for Dell, Inc.

Furthermore, with all due respect, and with the utmost of apologies to bored grandparents who have nothing better to do than follow me around and take exception to my every utterance, I believe my record of assistance here more than stands for itself, whether your 195 logins (including those spent second guessing me) have clued you in to that effect or not. Of course, if the SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH function was working, this could easily be verified, but hey, it's not like anyone OWES us that luxury is it? (Despite what some User Comments denizens might have us think...)

{I have edited the above from your post for clarity/brevity for others reading this reply to your reply. The context/content remain, I believe...}

I have got to say that I am disapointed that your response is: "what he said...."

That withstanding, I agree that inadequate identification is NOT useful to forum members.
As to spelling, as you may or may not be aware, MANY highly gifted brilliant people, (Einstein comes to mind), who work with pc's in both soft and hardware field are known to be 'dyslexic' and or have difficulty processing how to spell words correctly, ESPECIALLY in english. Also many techs and 'geeks' do not have english as their native language. Doesn't make them any less competent. Read any well written english translations of technical manuals lately? I know I haven't.
The tech in question suggested getting in touch with Dell as I understood it. I saw no effort to mislead the forum member.
If technical advice sounds too strange to believe I suspect most people would be able to discern that for themselves.
You have posted many good pieces of advice to forum members and I think that is great. Keep up the good work.
I don't know what all the 'Delltalk instigator' stuff is about...maybe you'd care to enlighten.
Thank you.
Chim

This reply is to goonboy:
I'm not sure it is constructive to further this discussion, however I will address the points you have brought up.
I'll give you the adequate identification point; so noted.
For the record how many logins I have VS. how many you have is hardly the point. If there is a need to compare, (for your edification), why not compare how many logins each of us has VS. the amount of time spent using these forums. I began using these forums in late Nov./early Dec. of this year. And you?
I can't comment on your 'due respect' other than to say I doubt it is meant sincerely; though I could be wrong.
If you are going to assist then I suggest you do just that and leave the sarcasm/etc. at home. As far as bored grandparents following you around, I seriously doubt ANYONE could be THAT BORED! ( again I could be mistaken, it takes all kinds).
Insofar as second guessing you that is a figment of YOUR imagination/paranoia; I post or reply in a way that hopefully will be of benefit to others, and I do not take myself so seriously as to think that everything I post or reply to is 'truth' with a capital "T." There is often more than one solution to any problem or post.
Seems you might be a bit paranoid about the 'following around bit' and the need to verify same.
Fact is I just happen to have replied to some of the posts that you have, I suppose, though I have NOT been keeping track, as you seem to need to do of where I go. Now who is following who?
As to the user comments denizens, I am unclear as to the history of what you are referring to, and since it is not germaine to my efforts on this forum and other forums at Dell talk then it is of no particular significance to me.
Your 'Delltalk instigator sign' has the following text behind it which does NOT show up unless someone replies to you: "Gee...I hav a Dell sine and a number....that must mak mee qwalified two!"
I suspect the spelling errors are purposefull, and I consider the source, which explains a lot.
I sense an 'ALPHA' male type who feels his territory infringed upon.
Try lightening up...it wouldn't hurt.
Chim

My it certainly is you certainly are deep. I beg your pardon, Professor Einstein...I had no idea you had returned from the Great Beyond to bestow upon us your infinite wisdom and regrettably long winded flawed insight into the workings of the male species, Alpha or otherwise.

I stand before you a greatly amused thoroughly chastened admirer of your overblown pomposity genius.

Not.

"Life is too important to be taken seriously."

goomboy,
Evidently you chose to not address the specifics of your origional post as I did in my last post to you.
Sorry to find your attention span to be so limited; though it comes as no surprise.
As far as MY qualifications to address issues of the male species it just so happens I have an advanced degree in Applied Psychology; and you?
I used 'Einstein' as an example of an extraordinary human being; is that somehow threatening to you? As it happens, I was not even addressing you about him, but your cohort and ardent admirer of your presence on these forums, Pammie,G.
You claim I'm a genius, if you feel this way, who am I to influence your conclusions...whether based in fact or fiction?
Attempt to use your pc knowledge to do as you say you want to and help those who know less than you about pc's instead of giving me a hard time.
I suppose you were always at several thousand posts when you entered this forum OR did you tally this high number over time?
I Know I am helping some forum members as do you so essentially our objectives are the same.
So let's get to work and stop this FOOL-ishness.
