Advantages: Small and compact, ideal for day to day use
Disadvantages: Not the best for gamers

Just to sum it up before I blabber on, Awesome for the Price. The pavilion slimline s3015 may not be top of the range, it may not have the best graphics card and it may not have the best processor. But at the price it's going for (+/- £325 on average) it's fantastic, great for the people who have had a dusty old machine clankering away all these years and is failing to meet their basic needs such as web browsing and media sharing. For the price ...
...the basics will be able to afford this without breaking the bank. The graphics card and processor are also powerful enough to run most direct x 9 games on respectable settings, although for the hardened gamer this pc wouldnt be compatible for their needs. With the space for an extra gig of ram to be fit into the tiny chasis this pc could beome a very versatile little machine. ... Read review

Advantages: Can play the latest games, fast boot-up, reliable, runs cool, runs quietly
Disadvantages: Price is a little steep, not all games are compatible with Quad Core processors

...built XPS 420 directly from Dell which contains a 2.40GHz Quad Core processor, 4GB RAM, an Nvidia GeForce 9800GT, and all the other good stuff a computer needs. 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. ...

Advantages: double proccessor, never overheats, very quiet, selection of grpahics cards, enclosed in silver casing
Disadvantages: none

The Dell Inspiron 530 was a birthday present for me and is a very stylish and new computer. 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 ...
