WishI didn't buy this

By John

from Guelph, Ontario

Wrong OS, basic instead of premium, turned down the offer to send it back, because who knows how long it would have takened. I already waited over a month to recieved it from the day I ordered it as the Showstopper. Also most of the "free" software was nothing more than trial versions. it's way too heavy and the 6 cell battery runs out in less than 2 hours.

Minor Problems

By Sami girl

from Penticton BC

Silver Reviewer

I also like everyone purchased the showstopper, with some upgrades, but it seems that I did get the Windows premium edition, however, it did take an awful long time to arrive and when it did, it was missing the second interchangeable lid that I ordered, a quick call to TSC, was told they would call Dell, later got a message saying the lid was on its way. Love how fast the system is. The software package isnt as advertised, some of it is trial versions.

Finally received my computer

By D

from Ontario

I received my computer on May 25th with windows 7 basic instead of windows 7 premium. I called TSC and was told to call Dell. Was told by Dell to call TSC. After getting the run around and ten phone calls later, I finally received my new computer June 15th and Purolator picked up the original computer with windows 7 basic June 20th to send back. I really like my new computer, too bad it was such a hassle to get it. The four stars are based on the computer, not customer service.

First time I bought a computer from the TSC and I can tell you I am not a happy person. I am still waiting for Dell to send me the right computer. Plus, TSC did not call me about all these problem I had to call them, I hope by July 8, 2012 they will send me the right computer.

Dell Laptop

By Jennifer ( the shopping channel queen )

from Windsor, Ontario

Bronze Reviewer

I wrote in before regarding the dell laptop that I had purchased on May 5, 2012. It was the showstopper. I have now gotten a phone call from the shopping channel saying that dell has now offered a $100 rebate or the option of exchanging the laptop for a brand new one with the peoper software on it. I am much happier witht this as it would have been a lot of hastle to download the other operating system and install it on my laptop, especially when it was dell's mistake in the first place.
I am in the process of returning it now. Purolator is coming by the house to pick up the one I am returning and then in 10 business days I will have a brand new laptop that I can just charge and then it is ready for me to use.
From what I could tell just from a few days the laptop seems wonderful. I am very pleased with the screen display on it. I also like having the full number keyboard off to the right side as that is what I was used to.
Love, Love, Love it.

update to purchase

By johnnymac

from rosemere quebec

computer came with the wrong operating system, so check to make sure you have the one advertised.
tsc told me that they can't get me the software ,but i could either send it back to dell,and what if dell says i put software on it or maybe their is a tiny scratch on it and then i have to play the return game with them.
For a company as big as Dell to not send a 150$ upgrade disk shows me what they think of the consumer.
Part 2 was i get a 100$ credit,but tsc can't tell me when it is applied towards one on the payments my rating has to do with customer service
