Improve the web configuration - recommend based on what parts I desire

360 points posted to Dell, Dell Web Site by clohman Mar 11

The Dell Web Site is frustrating. I have a few very specific components in mind that I want in a computer, but the web site makes it difficult to find what I want.

I would like to see a configurator added to the website that allows me to choose components, and then tells me which systems can include those components.

For example:
I tell it that I want:
A dual core processor between 2.8 and 3.2
4 gigs of ram
an nVidia gfx card with 512 ram
a 10k rpm sata drive

The site responds with: The following systems can be configured to contain your desired components:

Optiplex xxx
Precision xxx
Inspiron xxx

Mar 11		 clohman,

This is a Great Idea. I was hoping someone would bring that up in here sooner or later. I agree that this will help customers trying to configure a system to purchase.

Mar 11		 Very good idea indeed. I like it a lot.. Way easier to browse through the possibilities.

Mar 13		 I have the same frustration when looking for a new laptop. I am forced to first decide between home, small business, large business category. It is not at all clear which category offers the laptop features I am interested in. For me, I would like to see a list of ALL laptops that offer (for example): dual harddrives, discrete graphics card, gigabit ethernet, and a docking station.

Mar 13		 this is a change that has long been needed on dell.com, I espcially lik the idea because I'm interested in
the xps 630 but the configuration choices are way to limited
bbr
Mar 17		 This idea could probably be merged somewhere.
