Dell Dimension 4100 Series

Pros: Excellent value; high performance; very efficient web purchase site.

After two weeks of putting my Dell 4100 through its paces, I have to say that this is the best PC I've ever had.

VALUE. For $1,200 (no monitor - I already had a good 19-inch unit), I got a 1GHz PIII, 256MB of RAM, a CD-RW, MS Office 2000 SBE...

Cons: None

After waiting & waiting for Dell PC prices to drop more & more, I decided to go ahead & buy one on Feb. 14th, 2001. My system arrived on Feb. 17th, wow that was fast. The machine came with a free shipping & 1 year of free MSN Internet access, total...

Pros: Fast enough for most applications
Cons: ME Operating system take a while to get used to

Pros: Unbelieveable performance, great package, Unbeatable price!
Cons: Absolutely NONE!

I can say with all honesty I am 100% astounded on the quality of this computer, and the company the made it.

Pros: Reliable, lots of room to upgrade and add components, tech. support.
Cons: None as of yet!

I have been using my Dell 4100 for about 3 months now and the machine has been flawless. The specs on my puter are: 1 GH CPU, 256 MEGS of RAM, 8X4X32 CDRW, 40 GB hard drive @ 7200 RPM, 19" Trinitron monitor, Soundblaster sound card, Nvidia 32 Video card....

Pros: Easy Online order process, well built product, GREAT incentives.
Cons: All of the hardware was shipped separately, not a big con but a pain.

Pros: Easy set-up, quality pre-installed troubleshooter software
Cons: Doesn't work

I was a Dell fan. Up until a month ago I never owned one. But hey, they're the home team in Austin.

Then I bought a Dell. It didn't work. Same with the one a family member bought.

I bought the 4100 before Christmas. I juiced it...

Pros: great video card
Cons: poor speakers

I was looking to replace my Gateway Pentium II which I had just sold.
I actually bought a refurbished unit as I needed a computer fast.
The unit arrived a day earlier than I thought and has the same warranty as new units. I got the Pentium III...

Cons: none

WOW! I had no idea what I was missing!

Pros: GREAT PACKING. EVERYTHING WAS THERE! A-OK OUT OF THE BOX.
Cons: CUSTOMER SERVICE..BUT WHO **has** GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE NOW??? SO..THIS DOESN'T COUNT AT ALL.

After owning an HP Pavillion Celeron 500MHz and suffering through the truly worst customer service AND computer performance, my Dell 4100 was a dream. Sure some customer service reps were ignorant but some were quite good. Customer service is so bad...

Pros: Simple setup, powerful processor and great support. Built to order.
Cons: You must buy either online or by phone. No physical stores (not a real con).

The 4100 series is a very good computer for anyone looking to do everyday tasks like word processing or e-mail. Also, with the option PIII at up to 1.0GHz its not bad for the power user with a limited budget. However, if your a passionate gamer, crazy...

Pros: Fast and reasonably priced
Cons: A DVD and CD-RW standard would be great

Pros: Power and quality at a competitive Price
Cons: Waiting for it to ship. And I wish it had two more USB ports

I bought the 4100 after looking at every major brand. I compared apples to apples and decided the Dell gave me the flexibility to really configure it to my needs. I bought mine with the 17" monitor, 40 gig HD, DVD and CD-RW and 128 meg of Ram. Just...

Pros: A lot of speed at a good price
Cons: none

I bought a Dell 4100 series computer about a month ago. It has an fast 800mhz Pentium 3 processor, 64MB ram, 10GB hard drive, and a large 19" monitor. I highly recommend this computer because of the great value and customer service offered by...

Pros: Was great, while it worked
Cons: Has not worked for 2 months

When I got a Dell Dimension 4100 last August for school (I am a student at BU), it was because they are reasonably priced and my father's office has had pretty good luck with the Dell computers they have bought over the last few years. This past May,...
