I sum up my experience with Dell Business Laptops as mostly positive. On a personal note, I choose to buy Dell Business Laptops at home. I have an Inspiron fourteen, I have an Alienware M17. My wife does have an HP EliteBook and it is a nice computer, but I prefer Dell in my house and at work. It is a brand I recognize, it is a brand I trust, and they have proven it with their support and their cost.

We had an issue last year, and it was with NVIDIA directly inside the hardware. When we informed Dell about the bug so they could help their other customers, they basically brushed us off because we no longer had a warranty on that product.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was that I bought it from a channel partner, and while I was not too pleased with that, it works.

Many drivers that come out have caused us to stop allowing self-updates because they often break other things and software, so stability and rigorous testing prior to deploying the software are crucial for us.

One feature I think that Dell Business Laptops could improve upon is finding a way to increase a NIC card to handle a higher throughput of connectivity.

When we run the most demanding statistical and database models, the cooling system fans can get somewhat noisy, which is a bit distracting, but it is not very critical.

In terms of what could be improved about Dell Business Laptops, cooling is an area that needs attention.
