Disadvantages: a bit standard, not really exceptional

The ThinkCentre A50 8085 has lots of features and technology, including Intel Extreme Graphics 2 performance, six USB 2.0 ports, lots of security features, and powerful software tools to back up and protect your data. Overall i think this is an ok pc, providing you dont install too much memory on it. I wont go into complicated details like memory size, RAM, etc because most people dont tend to understand them to well. Basicly, underneath all the ...
...for an average person. It would be ideal for a student, like me. I bought this pc for about £500 new recently. But be warned! This, like many other computers, may seem great at first, but after a while it grinds to a halt while browsing the internet, freezes when playing games, and takes a lifetime to boot up. This of course is not all down to the computer itself, but how much software you install and how often you clean out temporary files, etc. ... Read review

I ordered it late night on a Sunday, and I had it setup and working by the Thursday. Best of all? Shipping was free!

Since starting the computer for the first time, I haven't had a single problem with it that wasn't caused by a faulty disk or my lack of patience. I would recommend it to anyone, even gamers. ...

This computer is very stylish because of the silver casing which covers the actual black computer box its self. Bothe DVD and optional blue ray disc drives are hidden making it look plain which also makes it look very neat and tidy. The Dual Core processor is capable of much more than it seems. All though Core 2 duo would be much better, the PC is able to ...
...that the 1.4Ghz is doubled meaning that the total output is actually a big 2.8Ghz! (reliable source - My dad who works for an IT buisness as a programer). There is also a selection of graphics cards to choose with this proccessor if bought online from dell. This computer makes little noise and is very quiet compared with my mums Packard Bell computer which has only a Pentium D proccessor. There are no disadvantages to this computer so far and I ...
