More QA Gaffes from Dell

My response to Dell's survey : How do you like your G5 gaming laptop?


BTW, I bought it because I was getting more bang for the buck compared to the more expensive thing - don't remember the names now. The best part about this thing is that you don't need any adapters at all for hooking up two monitors. This is the first laptop I've seen that does that - no docking station needed. Period.


That being said, what should they fix on the next rev?


Fix the design issues - massive noise feeding into the USB ports - you cannot have a wireless mouse connected to the USB port near the two video ports. The one on the right side is slightly better, but it too generates a lot of noise when charging my Bose NC headphones.


Also, make sure the USB ports do not leak when they are not powered - if I forget to unplug my headphones from the USB before putting the laptop into Hibernate, the next morning the battery is practically completely discharged.


Ensure the Intel Graphics Options work properly - when the Hot Keys are disabled, other apps can use them. Each time I reboot, VirtuaWin fails to register the Hot Keys and I have to go into Intel and enable/disable Hot Keys to make them available to VW.
