Advantages: Powerful and relatively cheap
Disadvantages: It's a computer

...We are talking about the Dell Dimension 5150c Desktop Computer. And there's the rub! Anyone who has bought a Dell computer will know that they are essentially custom ordered and bought. There is not a standard Dimension 5150c. You phone the nice man/woman in Mumbai and the battle commences. They try and sell you the top spec version and you try and resist. That said, the Dimension 5150c is really only the basic tower design and all specs, monitors, ...
...to your initial negotiation with Dell apart from a few standards: Mine came with Windows XP home edition. I have enquired, and all future orders will come with Vista, of course. It comes with the usual Dell 15 month MacAfee virus zapping software. It comes with CD/DVD burning software. I bought a TFT 19" flat screen monitor but there is a 24" version available. That's a big face. The manual leaves something to be desired. However the online manual ... Read review

...easy to use, then this Dell would be good for you too. For those who are more technical than me though some of the specs are as follows: OptiPlex GX520 - Intel Pentium - CPU 2.80GHz 504MB RAM Hardware: HL-DT-ST CDRW/DVD Drive, and 3.5 Floppy Drive 80GB (7, 200rpm) SATA Hard Drive Internal Dell Business Audio Speaker The only thing that took some getting used to is that the DVD/CD drawer is on it's side and at first putting CDs etc in was not ...
..."tower" - you can place it on it's side and then your draw would be in the usual position! Also I did not much like the sound through the internal speaker so bought two external speakers. These were easy to connect and inexpensive and the sound is now fine. Some of the USB ports are located on the front of the system which makes life easier - especially since I download pics from my camera on a regular basis. I would definitely recommend this PC. ...

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 ...

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
