No wonder Ben Curtis started smoking dope. Dell just plain sucks.
The date was February 16th. I placed an order for a new Xbox 360 Christmas Bundle with an extra game. It was the last day of the $120 off sale and my old Xbox was dying.
So... I pulled the trigger on the system, and then it occurred to me that I needed a way to transfer the data from hard drive to hard drive, so I threw a memory card in the box. First, for those who don't know, the Xbox memory cards are $50. They're ridiculously priced and nobody uses them for a good reason.
Needless to say, I got the memory card the next day and opened it up starting to transfer stuff, figuring the Xbox was a day behind. Nope, instead I get an email saying I won't get the system until 3/4. Well, the package was already opened, so I figured what the heck, March 4th isn't too far away.
Well, I get an email today saying the order was delayed AGAIN, and I had to act now to keep my order, otherwise the FTC would make them cancel my order and there goes my great deal on an Xbox. Well, I called and canceled the order, and when I spoke to the guy, he says the two week delay was an estimate and they may or may not have it in by then.
So, screw Dell, screw Microsoft. No wonder I use a Mac. Hardware doesn't fail and the customer service doesn't suck.
