A few examples of DELL and proprietary solutions from my one (and last) DELL computer:
-> completely proprietary CPU cooling solution
-> TV-Out that produces a signal that no ordinary TV can display (only in black and white). I had to import a special cable from an US website to make that work (all the "advice" by the DELL support was contradictory and useless)
-> Their DVD burners are special version that are being made only for DELL, although they have the same names as the retail versions. The firmware updates for the retail version won't work on the DELL version, and - of course - DELL won't release a firmware update of their own.
Oh, an besides, the DELL support is by far the stupidest I ever encountered. Compared to them, even Deutsche Telekom is competent.
