I bought a laptop from Dell ((Dell’s are great – if you know what you’re doing OR if you spring for the all-you-can eat repair buffet AND like talking to tech support.))
After a year, I sent my laptop in for a minor repaird
Dell last my laptop, and after much agony, replaced it with another model
After a year and a half, laptop monitor stopped working
