"Fantastic Deal" on May 10, 2005 by Lifelover1972

Pros: Very Fast, Very reliable

Cons: None to speak of

Summary: I upgraded the processor to 2.44 (MHZ/GHZ?)Intel Pentium 4, so I do not have any of the graphics issues others have. Very nice. Very solid reliable performer.

"great basic computer" on April 2, 2005 by seekunique

Pros: inexpensive, easily upgradeable

Cons: could be a little faster

Summary: I don't know why these other people gave such negative reports! There is open slots for graphic cards, sound cards, ram, etc. They should have read thoroughly about the computer before they bought it. Most celeron computers will not play graphic intense games without being choppy. If you want a gaming computer, buy a P4 or an
amd. Most computerphiles know that a celeron processor is not fast enough for these games. It works great for old atari type games, and some of the older less graphic intense games. I guess they thought they could get a top of the line computer for nothing. I just installed more memory and a tv tuner card, they work great.

"Cheap design for the money you pay" on September 1, 2004

Pros: looks ok

Cons: no real room for upgrades, computer crashes with a few applications open (512MB RAM and 2.6 MHz Intel Celeron) but the onboard video card is the worst part of the deal. This card works worse than the one on my old computer!!! and there is no AGP slot to c

"not worth the money...." on March 25, 2005 by hatedell

Pros: very affordable

Cons: The power supplies that they use are super cheap. I have purchased 3 computers from dell in the past year and all 3 power supplies burnt after a week of use.

Summary: If you want to save a lot of headaches go with a different computer brand. Dell has terrible customer service, at least their level one is useless/clueless. I have had no problems with my new computer (Gateway).
