Replacement laptop #*2*, incoming! And it only took another 10 transfers, an hour and a half on the phone, and two warranty-information related fuckups!

Remember all those times I've said Dell has the best support in the business? Even at this point, they *still* do, and that's a fucking terrifying thing to be able to say.

(The problem: Original laptop was defective. Replacement laptop works fine but is missing the Bluetooth module, which is not field-addable.)

Weird, on my Dell Inspiron a couple years ago it came back from service minus the Bluetooth module, and they just mailed me another one. Easy peasey to put in a little compartment next to the battery.

It depends on the device.

However! I have a Stupid-Good-Support warranty that involves Not My Problem being the main thing I have to say at any point, which means that even though I *could* potentially install the Bluetooth module myself, I don't have to.

... assuming Dell doesn't misplace the note about your warranty...
