How IdeaStorm Works:
Reduce the size/weight of the power adapter Laptops, Laptop Power submitted by yagogak 2 days ago
Why the Dell power adapter are so big and heavy ? Specially for the M90 and dell XPS 17. Laptop are designed for mobility, the power adapter should be small and light. Apple do small adapter, i think Dell can do that. Provide the choice of whether to have software and driver CDs shipped with equipment Service and Support, Software submitted by bbrereton 2 days ago When ordering equipment from Dell, the consumer should be given the choice of whether they need the accompanying driver or software CDs, and manuals. I currently have multiple copies of Roxio, Cyperlink Power DVD, Dell Monitor, etc. I also get a Dell Computer and Monitor product guide with each machine. This is such a waste of paper and money. If Dell is striving to go "green" this would be one way of making a difference. In addition, I would like to ship Dell any unused CDs so they can re-deploy them, but according to my Dell representative there currently is no procedure in place to do so. 2 Comments » Environment, Service and Support submitted by infinitelink Aug 4
Dell is amazing for having post-warranty repair service; I am considering using this on a Gen 1 XPS; however I also know about the clogging problems those systems had with dust (and the design flaws), and I never did get to use it without having to lift it even more from a surface for air intake. Third touchpad button as 4 way scroll button Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by svenc Aug 4 I would like a third button placed bewteen the two existing ones. The button should be square and act as a cursor which can be pressed on all four sides to allow scrolling up/down/left/right or pressed in the middle to act as third mouse button. 2 Comments » Update the Antivirus Software from 2007 to 2008 Software submitted by bryan14c 12/30/07 when choosing an antivirus for your laptop at dell's website i have notice why is it that all of the antivirus software are still 2007 , on the Hp's website they have updated their Antivirus software to 2008 i think dell should look on to this, why is it that they are behind in updating their antivirus software, i hope dell would update its antivirus software because 2008 is at its door step 4 Comments » Run Whatever OS on All DELL Pcs Operating Systems, Desktops and Laptops submitted by thebittersea Jul 30
Dell should make their Laptops and PCs to run whatever Operating System desired by their customers. Always prefer DEDICATED Graphics Card Laptops Monitors and Displays, Laptops submitted by it-professional Jul 30
If you are buying new laptop for Home or Office I suggest you to buy laptop with dedicated graphics card so that you can run Windows Vista smoothly as well as you can do Graphics work as well as playing games too... If you buy Inspirion 1525 please request for dedicated graphics card 1st... Make ubuntu version of laptop cheaper than Vista version Operating Systems, Sales Strategies submitted by frz Jul 29
Hi, IdeaStorm, Software submitted by aikiwolfie Jul 29
Using the new "Top Ideas" feature I tracked all the top rated ideas from the highest voted to 0 points. From page 1 to page 400. On every single page there were a healthy number of ideas relating to Linux, Ubuntu, OpenOffice.org, Firefox and free open source software in general.
We were told if we voted for it, we would get it! 13 Comments » Dell: improve customer CHOICE - urge Ubuntu to include MULTIPLE desktops! Linux, Desktops and Laptops submitted by phubert Jul 29
"Ubuntu uses Gnome by default. Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), XPS products submitted by phooku Jul 29 I am really impressed by my new XPS 630. But the wide open grill in the front, while great for cooling, does little to prevent hair, dust and lint from clogging the internal heat sinks. I wish Dell would sell a removable dust filter for both new and old XPS desktops. 2 Comments » Include a totally free ANTIVIRUS Software submitted by estebanhillcoat Jul 26
Include only a totally free antivirus solution like AVG, AVAST, AVIRA & etc. Avoid FOXCONN motherboards in later models Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Linux, Desktops and Laptops submitted by tom66 Jul 27
Foxconn, a major manufacturer of motherboards, has switched to not support Linux by feeding it bogus data: OpenSolaris 2008.11 PreInstalled. New Product Ideas, Operating Systems, Desktops and Laptops submitted by evocallaghan Jul 26
"Why use the OpenSolaris OS you ask? It's pretty simple, you'll find it full of unique features like the new Image Packaging System (IPS), ZFS as the default filesystem, DTrace enabled packages for extreme observability and performance tuning, and many many more. See OpenSolaris datasheet for more details. We think you'll be quite happy you came by to take a look!" Quit forcing McAfee subscriptions Software, Laptops submitted by kyliemanders Jul 26 I bought a 15" Studio laptop and was unable to order WITHOUT the McAfee $79 per year four year subscription. The first thing I do is uninstall. I would prefer to use Windows Defender. 5 Comments » Larger font size for entry of comments, etc. IdeaStorm submitted by j_hallgren Jul 23
If there is a way to make the font size large enough so a visually impaired user can select what works best for them, I've been unable to locate it thus far! Changing the "Size" in IE6 doesn't appear to have any effect, and I'm really having trouble seeing such a tiny font when entering comments. Ubuntu PCs with TV tuner cards Linux submitted by felixcorrales Jul 23
Ubuntu PCs with TV tuner cards: Give all N models the same hardware customization options as the identical non-N options Linux, Desktops and Laptops submitted by laptoplinux Jul 19 Why is it that the hardware customization options on N models are not identical to the non-N models. For example, the Inspiron 530 and the 530N. The 530 has an option for a wireless internet card. The 530N does not. There are other discrepancies between what is offered on the 530 and what is no offered on the 530N. These are the exact same machines. Same case. Same processor options. Same memory options. Same hard drive options. Yet somethings are left out of the 530N. Why is it this way? Why can they be just as easily on the 530N as well? Don't they come of the same or similar enough assembly line? 4 Comments » SAVE WINDOWS FOR WORKGROUPS (Win 3.11) Operating Systems submitted by aikiwolfie Jul 16 Dell should step up to the plate and do something right for the Microsofties! Windows 3.11 dies November 1st! NOVEMBER! Dell MUST SAVE WINDOWS 3.11 :oD 46 Comments » Make the FreeDOS operating system option available on your webpage Operating Systems, Desktops and Laptops submitted by laptoplinux Jul 15
After going through several phone calls with sales associates that vehemently refused my request of either no Microsoft OS preloaded on a computer or a refund for the unused Vista license as granted in the Vista EULA, I eventually came to find out that some Dell models can be ordered with the FreeDOS operating system preloaded, but that option is not publicized in any way, and it can only be done through a phone order. For the models for which FreeDOS is an option, why not make that known on the website. Perhaps somewhere easily accessible you could post a listing of the models that can be preloaded with FreeDOS, and then that can show up under the choice of operating system when customizing the computer.  track my votes
