Denied A Computer By Dell
Published: Thursday, February 28, 2002 | By: DennisThe owner of Weigand Combat Handguns Inc. went online and ordered a new Dell laptop. A few days later he received an email from Dell saying the order was canceled without a reason given. "They told me they were afraid I would use the computer for illegal purposes. Somehow I was singled out". In a way this sux but I also commend Dell on paying attention to who orders their products.
