      This has been aroud for years, nd it is actually a fake.
      I did some Googling on it Years ago and it was proved that it was a fake.

      Just reading this document made me thinking fake the whole time. Quick Google search:

      http://www.engadget.com/2005/06/16/the-dell-keylogger-conspiracy-hoax/

      Privacy advocates would be all over this if it happened to be true. Really though why would Dell need a keylogger on their laptops??

      Everybody is a genius. But, if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing that it is stupid.

      Dell is all we buy where I work. They're good laptops.
      They also regularly gets good reviews in PC Magazine. This month, the Dell Studio 15 got 4.5 out of 5 and also is the Editor's Choice. Plus they usually get among the best ratings for tech support, software/hardware quality, and ease of use. You sure you didn't just get a lemon?
