I don't care if some guy accepts BTC without any confirms, I'm interested in how DELL, A REAL RETAILER THAT ALLEGEDLY ACCEPTS BITCOIN, does it.
Thanks for the link to a shit video that no one watched, for bonus points try Rickrolling me next time.
Like dealing with sullen, differently-enabled children I swear grumble, grumble...

Regarding paying with Bitcoin, merchant adoption etc., etc, let's look at reality.
Dell is the hobbyhorse that often gets trotted out when merchant adoption is brought up.  Let's check what actually happens & how instantaneous it is:
...
Transactions verified by Bitcoin network.
Once a Bitcoin transaction is submitted to the Bitcoin network, it may take an hour or longer for the Bitcoin network to fully verify the transaction. A transaction is not complete until it is fully verified. Dell has no control over this timeframe imposed by the Bitcoin network.
