Is Dell leaving North Carolina?

A couple years ago the North Carolina General Assembly gave Dell around $280,000,000.00 in tax incentives to open a plant here in North Carolina and create some jobs. Some people were furious and lawsuits started, trying to stop the taxpayer's hard earned money from being thrown out the window. Dell was still given the incentives anyways, contingent on the factory meeting certain employment and local-investment goals by 2015.

But now the factory may close. Dell sells a lot of computers but may sell many/all of it's factories in n attempt to improve profitability. They're selling more laptops than desktops now and the laptops aren't manufactured at Dell's factories.

So, is Dell leaving North Carolina? Will the Winston-Salem factory close? And what will happen if/when it does?

We'll see...

Dell Registered Partner AbsoluteRaleigh.com

Dell has updated it's reseller program and we can now announce that we are a Dell Registered Partner. We'll primarily carry notebooks; we'll start with some Vostro machines.

Simply due to our cost being nearly the same as yours, they'll likely be cheaper to buy directly from the manufacturer and we will attempt to add some value. This will be some added memory and the convenience of being able to buy it right away. Many people have to wait two weeks (or longer) for the manufacturer to get a machine built and shipped.

Dell 6000, 6400 & E1505 laptops with No Display

We have seen a surge of Dell 6000, 6400, E1505 and other laptops coming in for repair with no display. The display suddenly goes dark and nothing can be seen on the screen. Or, the LCD is very dim, making text and images barely visible.

The display can not be seen due to any of a few different problems. But, lately we have had several come in with a bad backlight. Most of these laptops require our backlight repair.
