Advantages: No advantages
Disadvantages: Too many to mention

We purchased our Mesh Computer in July 2004. It wasn't delivered until 17days later, which didn't concern us as we were told when we ordered the desk top that it was going to be built for us to our specifications so would take a bit longer. We took delivery on Friday 13th August (bad mistake!) in the afternoon. The computer was really easy to set up - it had come with easy instructions on how to set it up. I managed it all by myself and then came ...
...Would I buy from Mesh again - never in a million years and I wouldn't recommend anyone buy from them either. *************************************************************************** Update We had someone to come and look at the computer. He spent 7 hours working on it, good job he is a friend as well as a computer expert. The result - it is still not working. We have again resorted to the laptop using the seperate TFT screen until something ... Read review

Advantages: Superb value, quality components
Disadvantages: None

I purchased the 'October 2003 Mesh Matrix 2500+ TFT' system and it arrived a few days ago. Curiously (this review written on 21st September) this precise system is no longer available, although equivalent and doubtless slightly better value systems are now available under the subtitle November 2003! I am delighted with it in every respect, particularly on the value for money. I shall run through the specification, and comment where I see fit: - ...
...throughout (I have also reviewed Mesh as a company separately, under Offline Hardware retailers). I can't fault it in any way... Except that my only gripe regarding the system is the lack of clear setup instructions from Mesh for the system, and no manual for the speakers. There was just a poster outlining which port was which on the back of the main unit. This isn't ideal for those with little or no experience of setting up PCs! The monitor came ... 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! Between pressing the power button and the computer being ready to use, you are looking at around 30 seconds. This includes me entering my password to log on. I see this as ...
...hadn't been for the current Dell offer and a discount code I had at the time. I will admit, I wouldn't have paid £920 for the system, no chance! 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 ...
