I just found my agreement for the relocation. I was moving from NYC to DC several years ago, after about a year of travelling to the DC location M-R each week. Looks like they covered $10,111 + a tax gross-up. That included two months of re

Dell offers different warranties depending on the channel you use to buy. I always buy through the small business section and buy next business day service. It's far less of a hassle.

I've done exactly this. I live in a city with ok, but not great, public transit. When we started having constant issues with our metro, I started taking Uber to and from work. It's more expensive than the train, but cheaper than b
