I'll add that I've never had to work with Dell's support.  The
purchase process went quite well, and the systems were solid and
-worked-.

I did have issues with the RAID card drivers and got great
support from the developer (who works for Dell).  But I don't
think I went through regular support channels to get in touch
with him.

My HP experience is dated, but our support was so-so.  I've
never had a Compaq.
