Long story short, before the holidays, I ordered a Dell Dimension 8400 for the wifey. Not as a present, but more of a tax write-off kinda thing (don't tell her that) ... anyway, I just got around to setting it up this weekend and I noticed that instead of the Prescott 3.2 Ghz processor, Dell decided (or fubar'ed) and sent me a Prescott 3.4 Ghz instead!

I'm not complaining or anything. Maybe Dell ran outta 3.2s or something? Dunno. Anyone else have this happen?

+1 for Dell.

😀
 
<-- Waits for some dumba** to tell you to return it since you're defrauding Dell! 😛
 
Dell often fubars orders. Someone else got your 3.2 and will never know the difference because their invoice says 3.4

Your invoice specifies 3.2, right?

I don't think I've ever recieved a Dell Optiplex as-ordered.
 
We got two laptops. An 1100, and a 5100. My sister took the 5100 thinking it was hers, and we got stuck with the 1100 at home. Made it a b1tch when we needed tech support cuz the numbers didn't match up but whatever, that's like a $1700 lappy for free.

Yep, typical Dell error. Remember that non-english-speakers assemble their computers.

Cause speaking English helps one tell the difference between 3.2 and 3.4? :roll:

DM, you should call Dell and return it or offer to pay because it's not right. 😀

Oh, wait. You should call and complain and ask them for a discount since they fvcked up your order! 😛

:beer: to Zim! 😀

Yeah I can see that conversation now . . . "Dammit, listen, my computer is running WAY TOO FAST! I demand that you send me something SLOWER! You hear me you Dell MFs?!?"

Yeah, that'll never happen.

Maybe it was Dell's Christmas present to me? Kinda like the $1 17" LCD TV that came with this system?

I :heart: You Dellf Girl!
 
WAIT! I just realized this means my wife has a FASTER computer than ME! OMGWTF?!? I hate you now Dell! Hate, hate, hate!

:brokenheart:

(I'm so conflicted)
