Dell used to be the best in tearms of warranty and service support but they have dropped off lately. I hear a ton of horror stories about the lower end brands like acer, toshiba, etc…

You were more fortunate than i was with HP then, they weren’t much help. Sony has been great. Agreed Dell support is a joke. Haven’t dealt with the others as much as you have.  
I guess as the price is driven down, the quality is bound to suffer…
