Dell has finally admitted that they have shipped out millions of computers with faulty capacitors. On their blog today, Lionel Menchaca outlined the issue as one with its product supplier and that they acted diligently to amend the issue, but stopped short of saying that they were deceiving customers who were plagued with the faulty part.

What the official response fails to touch on is that Dell continued to ship out their computers with the faulty capacitors. According to the New York Times, Dell may have shipped as many as 11.8 million computers with the affected parts and continued to ship them even after complaints came in from vendors such as Wal-Mart.
