Dell Hell - By the Numbers 14

Well this is cheap and nasty doing another "By the Numbers" so soon after the last, but then again the whole topic is about cheap and nasty, so why not?

I was showing a friend the anti-dell video "My PC is on Fire" on youtube and that led to wondering about the total views since I began this blog... that led to playing on google and the new microsoft search engine bing using various key words involving dell.. so here we go, and we will kick it off with my favourite!

227,706 - Views of "My PC is on Fire" from May 21, 2007

440,781 - Views of "My PC is on Fire" as of August 23, 2009

213,075 - Views of "My PC is on Fire" since I began this blog (NOTE: I did NOT create the video, I have far too little talent for that masterpiece!).

213 - Number of people who viewed that video if I was responsible for driving .001% of the traffic to it.

2 - Number of lifetime customers lost by Dell if 1% of those .001% choose not to buy dell products.

4407 - Number of lifetime customers lost by dell if 1% of ALL viewers of that video choose not to buy a dell product.

1,950,000 - Number of hits on Google using the keywords "Dell" and "Lawsuit".

12,200,000 - Number of hits on Bing using the keywords "Dell" and "Lawsuit".

551,000 - Number of hits on Google using the keywords "Angry", "Dell" and "Customer".

594,000 - Number of hits on Bing using the keywords "Angry", "Dell" and "Customer".

So what did we learn from all this? Three things...

Don't buy Dell products least you too wind up in Dell Hell.

If you are going to try out Bing be prepared for a lot of sifting to get what you need.

Social Media is a powerful tool for striking back at corporations who try to run roughshod over their customers.

So, to all three of my readers I say "well done", together we will bring Texas Justice to Round Rock, just like the guy in the white hat used to do in the movies.
