The biggest features of Dan are the fact that their machines are of extremely high build quality and always designed with upgradeability in mind. The after sales support is excellent - no hanging listening to music here - if technical staff are all busy you are told they will ring you back within an hour AND THEY DO !

Advantages: After sales support Disadvantages: Not the cheapest
...internal components).
What sets Dan above the majority of computer makers is their level of after sales support. In my experience, Dan after sales support has been excellent and is a true reflection of their position in service league tables.

...computer literate PC user, this Dan Explorer Computer was an excellent buy.

Advantages: It works and is supported Disadvantages: Limited options on Hard Disk
My previous computer was a Dan with a 133 Pentium. It gave good service and I was impressed with the telephone support (once I got through) when I wanted to upgrade. I remember at the time the machine was one of the cheapest.

I read a article in a computer magazine a couple of weeks ago and Dan completely and utterly ...
