| VLC slams cheap and nasty Dell speakers Tin box maker Dell has been accused of blaming the damage of its "poor quality speakers" on a popular open sauce media outfit. Dell customer support pages issued a warning over the weekend claiming that if you installed the VLC player your warranty would be voided. They claimed that the software was blowing up Dell's speakers. VLC has a feature that can make the audio go to 11 and much louder than other players, Dell claimed. VLC achieves this by using a process that creates hard which can damage small speakers. Dell has tested VLC and verified that the speakers can be damaged after several hours of using VLC. http://news.techeye.net/software/vlc...-dell-speakers |
