Advantages: Good value for money, Strong specs
Disadvantages: Vista

...word I can use for HP is trust. I never have serious issues with HP servers or workstations. This workstation is very solid looking, if a bit bland. It has a good quality feel and seems bullet-proof! It has an incredibly powerful processor and a decent amount of Ram, which is what makes all the difference when doing work. Dare I say it, but put a decent graphics card in an you would have a decent gaming machine! This is a business workstation, ...
...is perhaps unfair to criticise HP for a Microsoft product, but is part of the purchase price. I have found that it tends to crash and slow down at the most ridiculous times, and it gets incredibly irritating. Rather than staying away from it altogether though, just wait for the next service pack. Interestingly, the machine scores 3.2 in the Windows Vista performance test, which is a pretty good score for a workstation. Very good value for money, ... Read review

Advantages: fast, powerful, reliable machine
Disadvantages: quite expensive

My friend has one of these and seems to really like it and recommended it to me. I already have a great pc so decided instead to review it here. It looks like your typical base unit and it performs well at the tasks that my mate uses it for, which is for gaming purposes and surfing the net. Its a popular gaming desktop pc and has a powerful NVidia GeForce 7300LE 336MB TurboCache graphics card to allow for full 3d gaming. Must say i was impressed ...
...4400 which measures up quite well against Intel's Core2Duo range of cpus. Coupled with 2GB of DDR2 ram and a 250 GB hard drive its an impressive machine that should reasonably handle all of your needs. I mean if it can handle top-spec games with high graphics requirements than it can absolutely handle your work and other leasure needs. I particularly like the 7 USB 2.0 outlets on the back which my friend really needs for all his little desktop gadgets. ... Read review

Advantages: PERFORMS WELL
Disadvantages: COSTLY.

The hp Compaq stunned my mind when I heard its ability to deliver proven technology. I have some influence on deciding on which type of computer hardware or software to purchase in office. The PC device comes with dual core technology type and the dual core simply means that the PC is capable of having more than one processor and it has advantages over those PCs that have only one processor because it is quite faster and can process numerous in ...
...use for my office work. HP has proven their competence on making computer hard wares including printers that I regard one of the best in the market currently. Well getting this in my household would cost me quite some money because this is an office use. Since I am now in need of such PC, I think of making savings for it. Its company manual description is detailed very well and quite easy to understand and use. From what I have read from the manual, ... Read review

Advantages: No bugs, major crashes, fast and loads of fun!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any....

I was absolutely blown away by this little computer! My partner, who is a graphic designer, bought this to replace the PC we had and as soon as I got on it I was away! It is so user friendly and easy to navigate. I have learned so much through just using and I don't get irritated by it because it hardly ever crashes. When it does 'crash' or 'freeze up' it's very easy to rectify as you just click 'force quit' and it solves the problem! Brilliant! ...
...to get it working again! Yay! There is also some really fun software already on it like the IMovies and IDVD that you can create your own little movies with photographs with music and effects. It's really good fun and that's the key to this little Mac, it's fun to use whatever you're doing! ... Read review

Advantages: Monitor, Business, Keyboard, Look.
Disadvantages: Slow, Heavy, Space taker.

Well the Dell Dimension 2400 I could say is pretty good for business purposes. Dell does let you customize it but its more of a business system. Its not really all that fast, it has two ram slots no agp slot. Which means no video card, which means no high quality good games. How ever I recommend this system for typing, at home jobs, and for searching purposes. Pretty good size monitor but thats about it. Works with windows xp and lower O.S. Read review
