I almost bought this...only to ask myself...

"Why do I want to make a laptop I paid roughly two grand for even MORE attractive to a potential thief?"

I attempted an order, but backed out when it wanted to charge $16 for shipping. How absurd. I have an Email conversation going with a Dell customer service rep. Maybe I can convince them to ship UPS Ground or postal. A requirement that shipments to Alaska go Next Day Air is just stupid. Shipping speed is not an issue, and it's just a piece of plastic, so if I'm lucky, I'll get the thing shipped for free.

Ignorant shipping policies suck.

I'm not alone!

Question, though. For those who already have been using the Personalization Shield for a long time, do you see any signs of irritation or markings when you remove the shield? Considering that it can still touch the finished area, I want to be sure that it doesn't causing markings later.

Hey Bal, When you received yours, did it come with any pre-printed inserts, or did you have to make your own? Also, when you said about resloving the shipping problem, is that only if we ordered through you? I ask because I'm gonna use a $100 Dell coupon to order mine! Thanks!

lol, i have the inserts (got them with the laptop)... they are ok, but i dont use the ones they gave... they kinda suck (especially since i dont play guild wars).

what's funny is the guy in that picture has his insert upside down... when he is using his laptop the girl will appear upside down!

I received a couple responses from Dell about teh shipping ripoff. The first response was to say something along the line of, "I see you want to order the Personalization Shield. Please call telephone sales to choose the keyboard that fits your needs." {Blink}{Blink}

The second response, which was just someone else's response to the same message, said that I should call telephone sales because they have the information necessary to order this item.

This is the second time in a row that Dell chat or Email support has proven useless. Seeing as how the plan is to save money, I'll just push this to the back burner for a while.
