How IdeaStorm Works:
Offer Solid State Hard Drive with more Capacity and lower price Servers and Storage, Desktops and Laptops submitted by nsenman May 16 I think solid state drives are way too overpriced and not large enough for the amount of storage people need now a days. People would love to have the 100+ GB of storage Hard Drives along with a less expensive price, comparable to the current SATA. 3 Comments » offer ergonomic keyboards at discounted rate Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Sales Strategies submitted by ro_bro May 29
RSI is increasingly an issue these days with computer users. You should offer ergonomic keyboards (slanted kinds like the microsoft natural keyboards) at a discounted rate (somewhere like 15% below retail), using your leverage to buy them at a high volume. Dell needs to fix the Dell outlet so you don't need to call to make a purchase Dell Web Site, Sales Strategies submitted by ward733 May 21 I remember the day when i had some available credit on my prefered accpont and brouseing the outlet i find a great deal.. I select the item, go through the checkout proceedures then... what! call this number to use your prefered account between 7 am and 7 pm... O.K. Its 7:30 p.m. I try back at 7 a. m. and someone has already purchased the system.. It was so much easyer to make your own purchase and when you want to.. I think it needs to be fixed.. 2 Comments » Make Next-Gen Connectors Standard on all XPS Models XPS products, Desktops and Laptops submitted by icarus75 Apr 15
Dell, please make these connectors STANDARD on all upcoming XPS Desktops and Notebooks: STOP MERGING until you get an Unmerge feature. IdeaStorm submitted by jmxz May 21
Wow - the merges get stranger and stranger. Today we see the idea Stop Advertising Windows Vista On Your Linux Pages Advertising and Marketing, Dell Web Site submitted by aikiwolfie May 11
A while ago I noticed the Latitude XT promotional demo video in the Linux section of the Dell community page. And questioned it's relevance then. In the open source page on Dell.com Dell is still trying to steer open source users back to Windows. Don't abbreviate date information IdeaStorm submitted by mistern May 24
Sometimes, the IdeaStorm platform shows dates as "20 Minutes ago" or "May 30th". I'd like them to be showed always in a consistent format, which might help improve usability of the site. The format could be something like this: "2008-05-25 01:56 UTC". If you prefer another timezone, please don't forget to also signify the timezone. Other formats would be fine, too, as long as they are consistent across the site and don't fail to convey significant information. Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Laptops submitted by falbert May 22
Am I the only one that hates having ports of anykind on the sides of my notebook. I like my ports out of sight in the back. Make a touchpad Vostro Notebook Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Vostro products submitted by ccpljat May 27 I think a lot of small businesses would like to see a computer geared specifically toward small businesses that has the capability of a touch screen. This seems to be the future of computing, what with Microsoft Touch and the mobile touch devices. You could even make it an option to add to the already available Vostro 1310. This shouldn't be terribly difficult. 1 Comment » Ubuntu Linux systems Down Under Advertising and Marketing, Linux, Sales Strategies submitted by finkisadink May 10 At present it's not possible to buy a Dell system with Linux preinstalled within Australia. This is something that I believe should be resolved as soon as practicable — at present I'm having to buy systems with Windows preinstalled, only to never use that license... and this also costs me time & money as I have to perform a full SOE build from scratch. 6 Comments » CUSTOMIZATION PROCESS - IMPROVED Dell Web Site submitted by pablohs May 21 This idea is more philosophical than anything else, but I think it will give a fresh uncluttered look and feel to dell.com website. Start the customization process with just three options; 1) A Laptop, 2) A desktop, 3) A server (three pictures in the web page) – Dell has five lines of laptops and five lines of desktops, but as a customer I don’t even care how you call the laptops (XPS, Latitude, etc.) (It is just a laptop). For example if I choose a laptop let me pick among ALL the processors that you offer, then let me pick my memory from 1 to 8GB, then the size of my screen and HD, etc… Let me customize what I really care (my user requirements). When I finish customizing my laptop I may have narrowed my options to only one laptop in one production line (such an XPS) or multiple laptops in different lines but that should be the end of the customization process not the beginning. Comment » Linux, Operating Systems, Sales Strategies submitted by rahbm Apr 9
Please make the operating system a priced option on EVERY PC, so that people know how much they are paying, and for what. Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Desktops and Laptops submitted by moonunit7 May 26
I would like to know why DELL can't build a laptop and desktop that only caters for multi track audio recording? There is a huge untapped market out there and I don't know off any other company that targets this market. We all want to make audio recordings sound as good as the big million dollar recording studios and the place to start is by getting a proper computer. I mean... if you can build a laptop and desktop specifically for mindless computer games, why can't you do it for audio recording as well? Sell AC adapters at retail stores Advertising and Marketing, Laptop Power submitted by undead999 May 7
Since Dell is selling computers at retail outlets offer ac adapters for laptops at best buy, staples and anywhere you sell laptops. Also offer ac adapters at your kiosks.

Forrester sees Apple ruling the living room Indestructable multimedia laptop Laptops submitted by digger3d May 25 No more back light tube bulbs, use LED with plastic optics instead. Touchscreen together with a flash memory hard drives will make the computer virtually indestructible and more compact than MacAir. 2 Comments » Environment submitted by parasite May 25
Shipping boxes for desktop computers and monitors are the perfect size and durability for small animals to use as a place to sleep & play. Or you can spend a few hours and go overboard like I did--anyway, it's better than sending more boxes to a landfill. Only supported stuff on linux laptops/desktops Linux, Service and Support, Desktops and Laptops submitted by alexanthony May 28
I just tried to customise an ubuntu laptop (UK site) and saw that I could add a printer which I am unsure if it supports linux (says Windows 98/XP/Vista). It can't be too hard to make it clear whether or not this printer is supported, and if not, it shouldn't be advertised when customising an ubuntu system. show the picture of the actual mouse included Dell Web Site submitted by ro_bro May 29
on your dell website for home, you can't see the picture of the actual mouse you're going to get. No matter what you select, you see a generic image of what seems like an old ps2 mouse. Allow Canadians to order from Dell.com (USA) Dell Web Site, Sales Strategies submitted by junior May 24
Allow Canadians to order Electronics, Software, & Accessories from Dell.com (USA). What I mean is Dell.com has more Software, Electronics and Accessories than Dell.ca has. Say you want a high end wireless router that you see on Dell.com, and your a Canadian, you check Dell.ca if its there, and its not, which is pretty stupid and makes me abit mad. Dell.com should allow Canadians to order from their website. In check out of Dell.com, if a Canadian sees something he likes and its not on Dell.ca, there should be a tab on Dell.com in the shopping cart of check out and delivery, it should say Canada, but United States by Default because its a US website, and once the shipping address is changed to Canada, the price should change to a Canadian price.  track my votes
