Question:
Dropped my e1505 in bathtub!!
yup, just as the title says. i have the complete care package for 1 year (i bought it in may) so i think i'm covered. the laptop was completely submerged in water and seemed pretty waterlogged when i pulled it out. needless to say, it doesn't work.
would dell just try to repair the computer? is that even possible given what's happened to it? will they send me a new replacement instead? does complete care even cover this type of calamity?! :eek:
i know i'm an idiot, but i'd like to hear people's opinions on this forum before i call dell. thanks!

Did you let the laptop dry out for a few days after it was dropped? Assuming it was off when you dropped it in there, it's in the realm of possibility that it could end up working again. But if not, go right ahead and call them. That's exactly the kind of thing you have coverage for. Depending on how many individual components need repair, they may just replace the guts or just replace the entire laptop.
Looks at it this way: At least you'll have gotten your money's worth out of the CompleteCare since you have a good excuse to use it.

just out of curiosity - how did you manage to drop it? and what was it doing near the bathtub in the first place?
