Dell Systems Tracker

jtromans · 08-16-2007, 04:33 AM

So i've added two new features to the system tracker.

The first is 'bug tracker'. The idea behind this is that if and when people notice an issue with their system such as bad build quality, CPU whine, res changing after lid opens (etc.), they enter the bug into the system along with a definitive solution.

There are numerous long threads popping up over the place which makes it hard to track down the actual solution (if there is one) to a problem. Keeping them all in one place will mean it is simple and easy to find the solution.

The two new links related to this on the menu are:
My Bug(s) - Bugs you have personally submitted.
Bug Tracker - All bugs submitted by everyone.

The second new option I have added is a Review Tracker. Since people have started to receive their XPS M1330's, people have started to write some very good custom reviews which are not getting the lime-light they deserve. The idea behind the review tracker is to keep links to or copies of reviews on one place filed clearly by system and author. You can either add a link to a review via the URL option, or you can repliacte your review by submitting it into the description. I have even allowed pictures to be uploaded - so free image hosting for reviews as well. Please make sure that if you are going to submit a review in its entirity and you did not write it, that you have the permision of the original author.

I'm going to start populating the Bug Tracker and Review Tracker but I would also like the help of all you guys to keep it up to date - as everyone has done so well with the System Tracker.

Cheers,
J

Hey,

Great utility.

Can you include other laptops too like the Lattitude D630.

There are other business models too.

I want to see what kind of delays other D630 users are facing and i want to add mine too

The system is entirely updated by you, the community. If you want to add another system go ahead and add it

To do this just click 'Add' button on the "My System(s)" link and then click "Add xxxxx" located on the right hand side of every field. You can add anything you like. Please note this is all moderated.

Hope that helps.

Can you add a quick link to update the EDD? Since that seems to be the only thing changing :-( I got in, found the correct tab, changed the date, then wasn't sure where to save the data. Took a few times but finally went through to the last page (tab) when it saved. Maybe I was doing something wrong.

Thanks!

To add a page you only click "add" on the last page ... you use the page navigator to move between pages

I will add a quick update for EDD if its feasible tonight before I head on out!
