I’m part of an internet outreach team developed to interact with the online community regarding technical questions and issues that customers face with Dell products. I read your post and wanted to see if I could be of any help. I can definitely empathize with your situation, I’ve been in the tech industry for many years and have seen all kinds of failures, but the one thing that always remains constant is the frustration of having a downed computer. I understand from the post that the fan has gone out on your machine which is causing it to overheat. I also read that you’ve had this fixed a few times before so you’re worried about it happening again, but while you’re out of warranty. That would be a real concern for me as well so I want to see what can be done for you. If you can get back to me at customer_advocate@dell.com with this topic in the subject line, ATTN: Mike B. (overheating system), I’ll get back to you ASAP. I hope to hear from you soon. <BR/><BR/>Thank you, <BR/><BR/>Mike.<BR/>Dell customer advocateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13326001.post-7279991074190083952007-03-18T00:38:00.000-04:002007-03-18T00:38:00.000-04:00EK, Sarah - I almost wrote that in the post.
