I probably got a lemon but regardless my XPS (~3 years old) is the worst computer I've ever owned. Touchy WiFi, battery that goes from 30 to 3℅ in a matter of seconds, randomly doesn't detect the keyboard, randomly freezes, randomly doesn't acknowledge it's plugged in. Some days I just put it in timeout and use my 10yo netbook instead.
You never contacted dell for a warranty? That definitely sounds like a lemon to me
Why would you put up with that? Why wouldn't you demand a replacement.
