Riva, It's been awhile since this happened (2002) so I may not have all the details quite correct but I got a lemon Dell Latitude C640 on the first ship. Among my chats with various people at Dell that I recall, there was mention that if the computer was within a 30-day time frame from when it was built and delivered, the handling and replacement procedures were a little different. I went back to sales and after they confirmed that the computer was fried (something with motherboard), they had me re-order the computer and they replaced it.
You might try going back to the sales people and throwing a temper tantrum, so to speak. It was very important that all this happen within the 30-day period. After that the procedures were different.
