How IdeaStorm Works:
BIOS download option either in ISO format or CDROM building utility Accessories (Keyboards, etc.) submitted by lawson23 Jun 17
Now with the advent of the disappearing floppy users need an option to load the BIOS from the CD-ROM drive. Don't charge up to $50 more to downgrade from Vista to XP Operating Systems - Multiboot, Desktops and Laptops submitted by jervis961 Jun 17 Dell is going to start charging customers up to $50 to downgrade thier systems operating system from Vista to XP after Wednesday. While some people see XP as an upgrade, I don't think there should be a charge for it. 17 Comments » Dell submitted by simon_n Jun 18
There was an interesting article in The Economist magazine's technology quarterly out last week about hardware vendors publishing their hardware specs on-line for people to see and collaborate on: Update UPEK application and driver Service and Support submitted by programatix Jun 18
UPEK has already updated its TouchChip driver at http://www.upek.com/support/downloads/drivers/windows.asp. I tried downloading the driver and it works properly with my XPS M1530. New NVIDIA Geforce GTX 200 GPUs Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Gaming submitted by helmecj01 Jun 18
The GeForce GTX 280 GPU has 240 multi-threaded processing cores, and can convert high-quality video more than 18 times faster than the latest CPUs. Dell needs to listen to customers and stop adding junk like shortcut links to Ebay to desktops. Advertising and Marketing, Desktops and Laptops submitted by jervis961 Jun 18

New Product Ideas, Laptops submitted by simon_n Jun 19
In the spirit of the previous idea about the napkin PC there is also a need for personal computers that adapt to the different environments that you use them: Provide settings map between monitor models to match a monitor being replaced Monitors and Displays submitted by phubert Jun 19
I just had to replace a failed Dell 2000FP with a Dell 2001FP and can't get the colors/brightness/contrast matched on a Precision Workstation 370 with an nVidia Quadro FX 1400. Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by ccpljat Jun 19
Offer IdeaStormers To R&D Their Own Ideas IdeaStorm submitted by simon_n Jun 19
IdeaStorm is a fertile breeding ground for ideas that helps foster valuable creativity. Discounts, Credit, or Cash for Recycling Old Laptops and Computers Sales Strategies submitted by wendaline Jun 19 I think Dell should offer customers either a discount, credit, or cash back for recycling their old computers. Both HP and Toshiba do this, so, why not Dell? If they did this it would help the enviroment while gaining loyal customers or keeping already loyal customers from going to their competetors AND they could refurbish the old parts and start selling refurbished computers at lower prices for those of us who can't afford to spend a fortune on a new computer. Come on Dell execs listen to your consumers, the ones who pay your salery, and keep us as your customers. Do you really want the other companies to win? Comment » A Better design for the XPS M1730 XPS products submitted by junior Jun 19 Dell, you have to make a better design for the next 17" XPS Notebook. It pretty much looks like the Inspiron 1720, but thicker and different color in my opinion. If you look closely to the 1720, you'll see it pretty much has the same edges, curves and display. Make the next XPS 17" soon with the latest technologies, better designs, and call it the XPS M1740, but with a backlit keyboard as well. 2 Comments » Laptop Power submitted by cazyray Jun 9 Can we get a portable battery charger. I have two batteries I switch back and forth and I always have to charge in the laptop. I know Gateway used to have one about 5-6 years ago but some how the idea died there?? 5 Comments » Proximity sensor for keyboard backlight activation on XPS laptops Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), XPS products submitted by tovare Jun 19
One of my consens with keyboard backlight is that it would light up the PC too much in the dark for instance when watching a DVD. Varius timeout modes from last keyboard activity is clumsy, because then you need to say hit one of the arrow-keys (although it would have been fun to see a keyboard once with an actual ANYKEY). Get Splashtop available on most if not all computers. Desktops, Linux submitted by he_the_great Jun 12 Splashtop is an integrated Linux desktop that lets you instantly boot your computer into an environment to browse the web and other tasks. I don't see any reason not to have it everywhere. 1 Comment » Laptops submitted by pablohs Jun 2 I can buy a mobile phone with integrated GPS but not a laptop? I would like to be able to buy a laptop with the GPS already integrated within the unit. I am talking integrated, NO a third party card + cables + antenna option. 3 Comments » Dell E configuration that competes head to head with HP Mininote and EEE 1000 Inspiron products submitted by midconsumer Jun 17 Dell E current information indicates no configuration with a hard drive that supports Windows XP and Office applications. HP Mininote offers 2GB ram, 120 or 160 GB hard drive and a custom XP installation. The Dell E seems targeted to the EEE surf rather than the EEE 1000. Please offer a business configuration of your smaller form factor. Dell quality is proven to me every day at work. I prefer Dell over its competitors. 2 Comments » Accessories (Keyboards, etc.) submitted by crazylittlemom2 Jun 18 Stop over pricing computer items. Now in these days everything is being on the internet, from paying bills to school for kids and to working. So stop making things so high priced so people can afford to get what they need. 1 Comment » Make the "recent ideas" the default page IdeaStorm submitted by ccpljat Jun 7 I think this is what most people are interested in looking at. The popular ideas page doesn't change too much. But new ideas are constantly showing up. I for one go there first. 1 Comment »  track my votes
