How IdeaStorm Works:
Hire Karim Rashid as Design Consultant Desktops and Laptops submitted by ustexasjoe 04/30/07
Karim Rashid is arguably one of today's best designers. Dell should hire Karim as a product design consultant for new, hip desktops and notebooks. Operating Systems submitted by donutfinn 04/07/07 Stop selling outdated XP and upgrade all XP computers to Vista. 8 Comments » Gaming submitted by jcb33 05/02/07 Hello, My idea, it is that dell manufactures its own game console with: HDTV 120 gb hardrive, Optical out, hd-dvd drive, wi-fi and more… 1 Comment » Pre-Install Bonzi Buddy on all new systems! Software, Desktops and Laptops submitted by captainsensible 04/25/07
It's not about what the user wants, it's about profit! If you don't upgrade Bonzi within 30 days he gets really sad and begs you hourly for money. And each feature costs an additional fee, and if you don't get it, Bonzi starts to get angry and delete your emails and randomly disconnects you from the internet! But the profits would be amazing. Sales Strategies submitted by theguy 05/03/07 Make drawing of lots at every week among all the purchasers of your products. For each dollars bought, the customer gains a participation. Will help to attract new costomers ! Comment » Dell, IdeaStorm submitted by linus 05/03/07 Dell should pay for the ideas it uses. It should pay for the idea what it is worth! 4 Comments » Desktop tower with LCD display on the side. Desktops, Monitors and Displays, New Product Ideas submitted by chewd 05/03/07
submitted by aboatman 05/03/07 I would like a laptop/notebook computer without a monitor. It would be great to have the hard drive, software, attachments all in one easy to carry box. The user would have a monitor at home and at the office. Coffee shops and WiFi places can provide monitors. Just plug in anywhere. 7 Comments » Software submitted by ootleman 02/16/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**
Would love the ability to have a clean Vista install. No AOL software, no earthlink software, no google software - just a clean, original OS. Easy access to fans for cleaning on laptops Laptops submitted by celticgibson 04/22/07 As we all know, the inspiron laptops get hot once dust builds up on the CPU/GPU grills and it's impossible to clean them without having to resort to taking the latop apart. It would be awesome if you could put blank plates on the bottom of the laptop, where the fans take in air, to allow for easy access for removal of fans and hence the cleaning of the grills. This would save many a problem with overheating hardware and endless tech support problems. 17 Comments » Notebooks - better quality, better options, better design Sales Strategies submitted by dspector 02/17/07
I have been in the market for a laptop for almost 6 months now. I have avoided buying one as I havent found one that actually fit my needs perfectly. Fix your chat wait times. 20 minutes is unacceptable! Service and Support submitted by baylor921 02/16/07 **REVIEWED**
For an internet company, your organization acts like it just entered the online market. Chatting with agents is the way of the future and waiting 20 minutes for a rep is terrible service. Especially for people who have an XPS or a $5000 workstation model. New Product Ideas, Operating Systems submitted by goonmaster 02/20/07 A driver development kit for every peice of Dell hardware like Lexmark have, so if the driver doesnt exist you have the option of making it. 2 Comments » Dell submitted by jmxz 03/15/07
I think it's telling of where Dell's priorities lay when most of your boxes has a sticker that says "Designed for Microsoft [XP or Windows or Vista]" on it. Wouldn't it be better if you designed your products for your customers first; and particular software vendors's agendas second? Show the drivers/firmware updates I actually need Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Service and Support submitted by jgv999 04/20/07
In the drivers support section even when you enter your express service code, there are still a mess of drivers and firmware updates that do not apply to the machine as shipped. Ship a regular clean system please! Software, Desktops and Laptops submitted by euripedes 04/24/07
Why do you insist on installing all manner of trial software and broadband offers? When I uninstalled all the rubbish that came on the system it became very unstable and bluescreened regularly upon Windows startup. Laptop Power submitted by lysglimt 04/20/07 I have a Dell Latitude laptop where I have bought spare batteries for when I travel. I was about to buy a new Latitude, same model - just newer. But my spare batteries won't work! They are the same voltage but the design is slightly different. So I have to trash 3 perfectly fine working batteries and buy new ones. Please think long-term - think 5-10-20 years ahead. Make sure the batteries and other parts are standardized and always fit. 9 Comments » Recovery Hard Drive partitions are not needed, other solutions are better Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Sales Strategies, Laptops submitted by carganegativa18 04/22/07
When I ordered my laptop, I selected the 120 HD, thinking it would be enough for my school work and photography. To my surprice when the laptop arrived, I only had 85 gigs available. I then took a look at "my computer" and wala, there it was Service and Support submitted by onthemovefit 02/17/07
Dell used to have the best support, so good you advertised being the consumers choice. Now, at least for home based support, Dell's support is terrible. Business support still seems to do a good job. It's time for Dell to get back to basics. Apply Thermal Grease At The Factory - Thermal Pads Are Terrible. Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Desktops and Laptops submitted by burner 04/19/07
The use of thermal grease instead of a thermal pad will cause better heat transfer between the CPU and heatsink. More heat will be removed by the heatsink as a result. This should increase the lifespan of several components and reduce fan speed/noise.  track my votes
