Dell Warranty

Do Dell's desktops come with a warranty seal on them, to prevent you from
upgrading parts yourself? I've had a quick look at thier T&Cs but still no
clearer!

Thanks

Dunno about the warranty but aren't some parts in dell computers
non-standard which will hamper you doing home upgrades (ISTR something
to do with the power supplies...)?

Just wanting to add 56k pci modem, floppy and maybe some memory later. Btw
it is a cheapy (155gbp inc del. 305-d1221h) but lacks some basics that are
cheaper to add after than spec with the order.

Actually comes with a printed manual with instructions on how to open
the case!

Good luck with adding a floppy. They have a funny slot on the front
fascia and no drive cage inside though I dare say you could bodge one
up. Ebuyer quickfind 38922 is worth a thought a £1.59 gadget to put a
floppy in the spare 5.25 inch bay.

Actually though my neighbour has ended up with three this year though
expansion and after the first one did not bother buying floppies. He
just has a £9 64mb usb memory stick and everyone prefers it allot.
Otherwise he can always write something on a cd or ferry it accross to
the one machine with a floppy (and actually a zip to cope with his
oldest machines).

I can't forsee major probs with that sort of upgrade.... Crucial
should be able to sort you out with the right RAM.

AaaaahhHH, I've already ordered the Ebuyer mounting bracket before reading
your post, but just using a memory stick would have been a more simple
option.:-(

Thank for all that posted.
