I have used this pc on many occasions and to be honest what it lacks in size makes up with power Tthe duel core proccessor along with the 1 gig of ddr2 ram gives it speed and stability along with a 320 gb sata hard drive which means theres lots of storage space to save games pics data and music without worrrying.
It also boasts a very swift dvd re writer that does both +/- dvds for data, movies,picture and audio discs.
The small but powerfull pc is all rounded up in a very tidy case which is 12.4 inches high, 3.7 inches wide, and 14.4 inches deep although the colour scheme may put some people off.
Upgrading or adding to the pc is a problem as for the size leaves little room inside for aditional items with only 1x16x pci express slot and 1xpci slot although it does boast 7 usb2 slots 5 on the rear two on the front.
This pc also comes with xp media edition meaning all of your pics,movies and music is kept for easy access using the media facility this again is a new learning process from windows but for most dosnt take long to get used to.
On purchasing this pc online added extras or upgrades are normally avalible adjusting the hard drive to larger (not that it should be needed) or upgrading the ram to help the pc with smoothness during multiple programe running.
Other aditions not on the pc are also avalible i.e moniters speakers and so on. The xps 210 has a ati radeon graphics card (256mb) to handle most of your gaming needs although this pc is in my opinion made for you avarage desktop uses.
the only downfall is the customer service if you need to call them it can be a task to sort out your problems but that is an if.
