Re: Netbooks

Who is your rep. I have not had great experience with Dell reps.

Thanks,

Renee

Our Dell rep is entirely reliable. I'm waiting for the Latitude
2100/2200 netbooks that are coming out in May. I had the opportunity to
work with this netbook and was impressed by the customizable features.
Battery life with a 6-cell battery is up to six hours. Dell designed a
small laptop cart to house up to 24 of these netbooks. The power port
plugs right into a slot in the cart. There is no spaghetti and the only
cord is from the cart to the power source. The concept was clean and
the netbooks had the sturdy feel of the latitude line. =20

I'm working with CDWG on this one. They have excellent customer
service,
and they are allowing me to look at laptops from HP, Acer, Lenovo, and
Asus.
Once I am done with them, I have to RMA the Netbooks back to them.

I'm not too sure about Dell because Dell sales rep are not easy to reach
consistently.
