Here, here! I buy at Costco (5.00 / 1) (#10)

Yes, I buy Compaq's but at least I'm giving some profit to a blue company (Costco).

This election, however, has really muted my rabid desire to support "blue".  Many of the Democrats (e.g. Pelosi, Dean) don't feel very "blue" to me.  I'm having a bit of an identify crisis about what is right and what is wrong.

Call me crazy, but I think voting is important.

I can't fault Jeralyn for that (5.00 / 1) (#63)

I always buy Dell, too.  It's the devil you know vs. the devil you don't know.  I know Apple is politically correct and everything, but I bought my daughter a Macbook for college and it's a real pain in the a** b/c of all the software incompatibilities.  

Also, I've heard bad things about Vista.  I got my son a new Dell laptop a year or so ago (d***, my kids are expensive!) and he complains about how slow it is.  I'm so glad that when I got my current Dell laptop, I got it with XP rather than Vista.

Smart of Jeralyn... (none / 0) (#112)

To not get Vista.  I haven't been able to use my printer for over a year - no kidding, even with downloading the drivers and all of that crapola.  It is less than worthless, and has wasted a TON of my time - it was on my new Dell before anyone knew how many problems it was going to create.  Sheesh.
