Dell phone tag.

Thank you for asking, but I do not have my express service code. It got scraped off, buttheads.

...Again, I have no express service code. The bar code was obliterated by shoddy materials and rough handling. The boot does not reveal my correct code, as it was a reinstall of the OS.

Six minutes expected wait time.

No, sorry, I don't have that service tag. I do have my customer number.

was going to suggest hitting fcn-f3 since that should take you to a setup menu which should have the code.

It did on my dell latitude. then realised you might not be able to get there cause of no battery juice.

...somehow, with my increased computer knowledge, the fact that my computer consistenly and reliably fails to spit up the correct code (a fellow and I had a great time over this ... he was at least helpful... some years back) is disturbing to me.

...Even when it does have battery juice.
