| Mosey's Full Review: Dell Dimension L433 |
I finally decided last October that it was time for a new computer. The last one I had was a Packard Bell that my mother bought for me Christmas of 1997. It was all right, but I wanted more. I asked a friend of mine who works with computers what he would buy, and he suggested Dell.
So, I went out and bought a Computer Shopper catalogue where I found a very nice ad for Dell. The best part of the buying process was that I was able to order it on the Internet. No calling a number and getting put on hold. The Dell website is very easy to navigate. Plus, you can change the options on the computer you want to order and see how much each option is.
I ordered a Dell Dimension L 433 with a Celeron Processor. So far, this IS the best computer I have ever owned. It is easy to operate, and one feature I really like about it is the fact that if I need to get inside the tower, there are no screws to deal with. There is a small lever on the top of the tower, and if I need to get in the computer, all I have to do is flip the lever back and the tower comes open.
Another great feature of this computer is the speakers. Harmon/Kardon HK-195 speakers came with the computer and the sound is nice and crisp, not to mention that the speakers don't take up much room on my desk.
The mouse that came with it is a Logitech First Mouse + Wheel. The wheel is for scrolling on web pages or other documents that have a scroll bar on the right side. No more having to click to go down a page. The scroll wheel did take a little getting used to, but now it is old hat to me.
If you are in the market for a computer, you can't go wrong with Dell.
