PVC Free Computers

Environment submitted by badblood 07/01/07 **IN PROGRESS**

PVC and/or BFR are toxic chemicals used in your current manufacturing processes of Dell. Nokia recently phased out these chemicals and reached number one in the Greenpeace 'electronics guide'.

It's True.



iPhones have no video playback output.

Did you just download a $19.99 movie from iTunes into your iPhone?
Wanna watch it?
3.5 inches all you get - and it's letterboxed , so it is more like 2.5 inches of Hollywood.

And you wont find this on the Apple iPhone,

Dell rocks you!

Bringing ideas from the users to reality. Microsoft ofc doesnt like it because the users dont like Vista.

Anyway, my post is about updating drivers. I have a 2.5 year old Dell Inspiron and the drivers from ATi have been updated very often for its graphics card, however drivers from Dell havent been updated for a very long time. VERY LONG TIME.
When i try to contact LIVE SUPPORT they wont let me talk to them because i didnt purchase my computer in the US. What a useless option to have, since they are the only ones that can update the driver, no matter where you buy your computer, you should be able to contact THE tech support.
Anyway, i finally get an email from Dell support and what do they tell me? They say that Dell drivers are always up2date!! A LIE! I pointed them out that ATi has updated their drivers several times and Dell drivers remain the same release! What does the Dell support then tell me? They said, go to www.ati.com and update your drivers there. *LAUGHING OUT LOUD*
I tried that, ages ago, and i tried it over and over, but ATi wotn let you update your drivers from that page and tells you to contact your manufacturer.

So everything goes in circles.
PLEASE KEEP YOUR DRIVERS UP TO DATE. 5 Comments »
