"Corrections to other reviews"
Pros: flexible and powerful options
Cons: little over priced
Summary: Just wanted to clear up some of the other reviews. I found the dell site flexible, there is an option for no monitor and depending on which 420 base model you start with you have plenty of options.
I researched other similar computers, the closest competition was the HP Pavilion Elite. I chose the Dell because the HP system does not have a good graphics card option, likely because of the weak 350 watt max power supply. Contrary to the other review the power supply is automatically upgraded to 425 watts to match the nvidia 8800GT video card (which is the ultimate card for the price hands down). Also the video and sound card options were more complete with the Dell vs the HP. Check out the Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic card that is not offered on other systems, THX certified HD music!
So if you can handle a weak graphics and sound card then check out the other systems...
