Advantages: Small, great heatsink!, Firewire built it!
Disadvantages: The size limits the lack of drive space

I have very little space for a PC in my study area (i.e. hole under the stairs!) and I hate clutter anyway so I wanted a PC I could stick in a cupbaord but still leave space for all my other compurter perifferals. This fitted the bill. It is the easy self build PC really as the it comes as a case with the mother board fitted (the hard part of a self build really I guess). I needed a CD/ DVD drive, a hard drive, processor and some RAM. This takes ...
...are different versions for other processors). I put a 3G P4 in mine and was glad to see it does support the hyper threading technology, which allows for faster multitasking. Wether it does 2 tasks at once or does some fancy concurrent tasking management I'm not sure, but it processes things very fast from my point of view!

Disadvantages: cooling system makes a sound when turning on or using alot of cpu

I bought this computer a year ago and had no problems with it since, the only thing you may need to consider is upgrading the cooling fan on the CPU if you hear a odd cooling sound when you turn the computer on.

The system has served me well over the last few months and I do think others would feel the same. ... Read review

The professional nature of the dell call centre has been second to none especially when setting the pc up and getting it connected to broadband which did prove a little stressfull at first! When I brought the Pc it was a wonderous piece of kit and ... Read review
