Can’t afford that new MacBook Air? In just 38 easy steps you can get yourself setup with a new Dell laptop instead.
Dell has forgone attempting to provide the user with a simple ordering process in favor of countless upsells.

While at it, throw in a matching flash drive. Don’t forget warranty, accident insurance, and premium tech support. With all this extra stuff, the user probably won’t be able to install it himself–throw in that in-home install and setup.
