Are there any tips/tricks on how to get something in the Dell shopping cart?
 
Ron,
 
Can I just tell the Computer Store what I need without an e-quote?

Brian/Pat,

Please send this email to your upper management.  MSU is not happy with
Dell's slow website!  Please let me know what action steps are being taken
to resolve this issue.  We consider any problems with your web site to be a
major issue.

Thanks,

Ron

The timing of this is thread is ironic.

Just today I needed to place a support call for an  E2111 -  SBE Log
Disabled DIMMx error (where x represents the DIMM slot) I am getting on the
display on one of my PowerEdge 1950 systems.  It's a problem I have
experience in the past on a couple of the other 1950's we have in our VMware
cluster.

When I finally was able to locate the correct support number to call
(literally minutes between screen updates on their support site as it looked
up my service tag info and returned the correct number to call) and got
through to a technician, I mentioned how painfully slow their web sites
(both the support site and the Premier site linked to through Cstore) are.
The technician said they have been complaining internally about the speed of
their web sites for the past several months.  His suggestion to me, blog
about it.  I was like WTH.

My response was how sad it is that in order for an issue to get the
attention of the higher-ups, someone has to blog about it and have it get
press coverage before steps are taken.

Such is the way of the world these days.
