Would you buy a computer that has telephone customer service located outside North America?

If you are just using a single region, then No.  If you are purchasing different regions, then Yes.\n\nIf you don't need that feature, then don't waste your money on it.

She needs to buy a Spanish version of the software. Also, it is illegal to export several of the programs installed on computers out of the country. When you bought the computer, you likely agreed to an end user agreement that stated that you agreed not to export the software.

laptops are cheaper outside India, believe me... But when you are asking someone to get one for you, make sure he removes the box and everything so that when questioned, he can answer that it is his own laptop and is taking along with him as he has some work with it... by doing it this way, the laptop reaches you without any duty on it...

It should be.  Be careful, that sounds a lot like a scam that people in countries outside the US use to try and get your account number.

Dell rhymes with another word for a reason!  I have a Dell now and it was *ell trying to get it right.  I actually had to ship the entire computer back and have a new one sent to me.  And guess what?  It still wasn't right!  When you call customer service, you talk to "John Smith" from India and can't understand a word he's saying.  What a nightmare!  I finally got what I wanted but it wasn't worth the hassle.  It would have been easier to go to Circuit City and pick one out.

The Dollar Tree has calling cards that can be used for international calls.  They list Mexico, Canada, England, Brazil, China, and Germany as examples of countries that can be reached with their card.  The times range from 18 to 26 minutes so that's pretty cheap for a dollar. Later.

I don't mind talking to somebody in India instead of in the U.S., but I don't feel very confident that the problem is going to get solved. That's not the fault of the people on the phone, I just think that there is probably very little communication between the office in India and the company in the U.S. As for people's English, believe me, there are lots of people working as customer service in the U.S. that speak worse English than the people on the phone in India. I think companies hire them just to frustrate callers and make us stop calling for service.

I would say use a courier, DHL offer a worldwide service and a tracking service. \n\nWith customs and import taxes, it will depend on each individual country and how many are being shipped. You will need to familiarise yourself with various countries rules. In the UK the website would be www.hmrc.gov.uk. The link below is for a PDF file with information about import valuations. http://customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsPortalWebApp/downloadFile?contentID=HMCE_CL_000230\n\nYou may also wish to consider that most countries have different keyboard layouts and that laptops with "foreign" layouts are not popular in most countries. \n\nAre they high spec laptops?? Are they cheap?? As a retailer of computers in the UK, I can purchase laptops from numerous sources, but the profit margins are quite small. The cheapest laptops here (celeron/256/14"VGA)  are £399 (US $725). While there are some that sell for £1500, the majority sell between £500-£700. \n\nFinally, if you would like to contact me, please do. And if you want to send me a free laptop (to test the customs rules), it would be gratefully received ;)
