  • Spread the word, this system rocks

    Sep 29 '00
    Pros: Insane speed, great price.
    Cons: You're not quite the cream of the crop.

    Summary: I have made it my mission to be the preacher of Dell and spread the good word throughout the internet. Any computer user with self respect will throw their current computer out the window, purchase themselves a Dell and save us all a lot of trouble. ... read more

  • Machine works well -- good thing, because Dell's customer support is weak!

    Jul 01 '01
    Pros: Fast, spacious, usable.
    Cons: Fan is noisy, video editing software lacking, poor customer service.

    Summary: Bought the XPS B800 6 months ago (before prices plummeted!) No major problems with it so far. The blower fan is noisy as heck, and sometimes I shut it down at night to get some peace and quiet. The machine is fast, though (I got the 256K ... read more

  • One of the Best!

    Jan 31 '01
    Pros: Comes with Office 2000 SBE
    Cons: Can be a little bit pricey

    Summary: Firstly, this machine runs (the one we had, at least) Windows NT 4.0 with impressive performance. It also come with a 8x4x32x CD-RW drive and an Iomega Zip 100 drive. Internal cards include a 56K modem , a network card, and a Celestica ... read more

  • Best for Furniture, "Overpriced Art"

    Dec 20 '00
    Pros: "Overpriced Art"
    Cons: Never get your system

    Summary: Update - 1/9/01 - It's been 21 days. (Dell exchange policy) My exchange was canceled as of 1/4/01 is what customer service told me. Then, (Arthur)told me to go to Dell Refurb Sales. Working through Dell phone support. 30 min. Gab (Dell Sales)just ... read more

  • Excellent Choice for Home or Office

    Dec 08 '00
    Pros: Solid, dependable, good value
    Cons: none noted

    Summary: I heartily recommend Dell computers. What separates Dell from the rest of the desktop computer market is the quality of the customer support and the design. As a technician, I take systems apart and replace components when needed and the Dell ... read more

  • Greatest System On The Market

    Dec 05 '00
    Pros: Reliable, Inexpensive (see review) Can Do ANYTHING
    Cons: none

    Summary: I bought a Dell 800 this past summer to replace my HP 166. The improvement was obviously incredible. However, besides a difference in speed, I noticed a great difference in reliablity. Previously I had found that I had to make a run to the computer ... read more

  • Wow!

    Nov 21 '00
    Pros: well made and excellent warrantee
    Cons: didn't find it sooner

    Summary: I recently went on the wonderful mission of finding a new computer. I decided to check out the internet and research different products before I made my final purchase. I ended up at Dell's website and read up all I could on what was new. After checking ... read more

  • Perfect for college

    Oct 09 '00
    Pros: fast, high quality, good technical support
    Cons: large

    Summary: As a freshman in college I was faced with the decision of what computer to buy. I have always had a Dell at home and my college bookstore suggested Dell so I decided to buy a Dell through my college bookstore. This system is very powerful and lets you ... read more

  • Best Gamming Console...

    Sep 08 '00
    Pros: Everything
    Cons: Tech Support

    Summary: In "Computer Gamming World" magazine the Dell Dimension XPS B800 was rated 5 out of 5 stars ( what was that? The same as mine :)?) for the best gamming console desktop. Why do we all love Dell? The endless sweet ass ... read more

  • Great Upgrade Machine

    Aug 28 '00
    Pros: Good Performance, Quality Components
    Cons: High Price of RDRAM

    Summary: I have to admit it, the main reason to upgrade from my old Dell XPS-R450 Pentium II machine to my new Dell XPS B800 was to run the latest, greatest PC games. It seems that computer games are always the first applications to push the processor and ... read more

  • Where is my customer service?

    Jul 16 '00
    Pros: decent cpu when it runs
    Cons: no service no support

    Summary: This must all be a scam because every time something goes wrong with my dell, which is often, I have to call these people and wait on the line for up to an hour , no joke, and then the phone disconnects you. What decent person would not want to blow up ... read more

  • A Good NT System

    Jul 12 '00
    Pros: Great video card, modem + NIC, Comes with Office 2000 SBE
    Cons: Tends to be a bit pricey

    Summary: This machine is great due to a couple of reasons. Firstly, it runs (the one we had, at least) Windows NT 4.0 with impressive performance. Also, it comes with a 8x4x32x CD-RW drive and an Iomega Zip 100 drive. Internal cards include a modem (56K), ... read more
