For example, I may find a perfect Alienware laptop which has 17 inch screen, new i7 processor and 1T hard drive, but the price is incredibly high; then \u00a0I will not buy that laptop because I think the price does not match the value of it.<\/p>\n<p>After today&#8217;s lesson and the information I read from the article which introduced Dell&#8217;s highly-customized purchase method and operation system, I decided to go to the Dell online store to experience the superb system I heard.<\/p>\n<p>I pretended myself to be a customer who needed to buy a new laptop of Dell and saw whether I would buy the laptop or not. Firstly, I found the &#8216;shop and compare&#8217; section which I could build my own laptop by selecting different categories from screen size, processor and hard drive.etc. It was very convenient and clear to choose the model I wanted from the section. Since I could customize my laptop, I was able to choose the processor I prefer, the screen I want and other features. I finally got a model that perfectly fitted my preference, and it had a price which I thought is reasonable because I could choose my price position. I didn&#8217;t go any further, but I heard that the average inventory period of Dell is about 4 days which meant I would get my laptop 4 days after I made the order, which is pretty amazing.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, if I really decide to buy a new laptop, I would choose Dell rather than other companies because of its fantastic purchase method and operation system.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As customer, it is not uncommon that we love some of the features of a product but dislike the others.
