Hardware, Embedded Systems It is rare for me to post a follow up to a review. However, this time I am left with no choice. Remember the television I reviewed? It was a fairly positive review; despite a few annoying glitches, I found the TV to be excellent value for money. Well, apparently, there's a clear cut reason why this television set is cheap. Read and weep.

In most countries in europe, this would be no problem, since Dell would have to give you a free replacement, since its obviously a manufaturing fault.

(Provided you actually paid for it)

In Europe it would be very bad for Dell indeed. They would HAVE to replace it in the first year after purchase according to European law. If it breaks down after that period, chances are that Dell would have to pay up at least partly, if a consumer takes Dell to court because of manufacturing faults.

I'm pretty sure Thom is in Holland (a.k.a. my favorite place on Earth).
