Anyone know if Dell PC's are any good?

rudey, they dont charge for the box, its the license type that costs more. OEM editions are not to be resold.

it may not matter to the likes of you or me, but corporately people tend to stick to the licencing laws.

I've had one for 3 years, excellent product and never had any problems.

Their customer service is shite (they cancelled my order for no reason without telling me) but the product is top notch.

Currently building a gaming system and will build a new powerful PC myself next tho.

Buy parts from www.aria.co.uk much cheapness.

I've got two of em - family PC is a Dell Dimension 2400 - 2.66gHz Celeron ( ) 512 RAM, 40gb HDD, usual stuff - been trouble free, not had to do a thing with it (apart from remove spyware my sister keeps putting on ) and mine I got recently;

Dell Optiplex GX270

2.8 P4
1536mb (1.5gb) RAM
60gb + 80GB HDD's
DVD-ROM drive
DVD-RW drive
Floppy drive
on board graffix (64mb Nvidia so I'm told?)
plus keyboard, mouse and cables...

£200

Added in a 5.1 optical/digital PCI soundcard to it and plugged in my 17" Dell TFT (superb screen, not the best, but bloody good ) and it's been superb since I got it, which was around end of summer
