Ben Myers[_4_]
If Michael Dell and his cohort, now out of the scrutiny of Wall Street and investors, are looking for something to do, they need to take a very close look at exactly how serviceable and maintainable their newer laptops are, and maybe figure out why they aren't selling so well.

I have a Precision Workstation 390 with the power button blinking.
According to Troubleshooting section, this means either a bad power supply
