  • There went my computer monitor rolling down the steps!

    Sep 21 '00
    Pros: Reliable and durable, easy to use, excellent company web site
    Cons: I haven't found any

    Summary: This time last year, I was still using a Pentium 100 that I had built myself (with a lot of guidance from a friend who actually knew what he was doing)in 1996. I had completely outgrown this computer. I once thought that I would NEVER manage to fill up...

  • so much for so little extra

    Jul 30 '01
    Pros: a cinematic experience with a perfect monitor sound system
    Cons: nothing that the service people can't handle

    Summary: With the recent decline in prices on the market for powerful processors it is worthwhile to spend that extra bit to go for a real power-house
    I admit to being a mere amateur on the computer scene yet I have no doubt in my mind I am right in...

  • Nothing to write home about.

    Jul 29 '01
    Pros: Nice Speakers, Comfortable mouse
    Cons: Every hour and a half problems arise I will get in deatil in the epinion.

    Summary: Nothing to write home about unless asking for help and sympathy. Well it has some nice things about it but I hate one main thing about it. It has 128 meg of ram and about every 130 minutes it seems like it is frozen but then five mins later it works...

  • Awesome System

    Jul 28 '01
    Pros: Easy to add new hardware; Awesome tech support
    Cons: USB port can be a problem

    Summary: I had previously written an epinion shortly after getting my T500 and I see that has somehow ended up in archived computer hardware reviews. I've had this system a year and a half now and still love it. The only problem I've had was/is with the USB...

    Cons: N/A.

    Summary: I've always used Dell computers anyway, from the year 1986. So my opinion might be slightly biased, ha, ha, ha. I recently upgraded my Dell computer and I've gotta tell you, its been one of the best experiences in my life. My new computers is like a best...

  • I need more speed

    Jun 22 '01
    Pros: excellent tech support, nice monitor
    Cons: not quite a state of the art system

    Summary: With all the great deals going on with computers right now, I can't understand how this is supposed to be one. It has sub-par processing speed, ram, video, and hard drive space. It also only comes with a CD-ROM, when newer computers are starting to...

  • The Little Dell that Couldn't

    Jun 19 '01
    Pros: It's a Dell...if that means anything
    Cons: Horrible speed and lacking system resources.

    Summary: My friends, we have all come to recognize Dell as a brand name when dealing with computers. Heck, Dell is number one in direct sales in the U.S. However these computers they sell are entirely over-priced. I recently built a 1.2Gig Pentium III computer...

  • DELL's a Smart Choice

    Jun 06 '01
    Pros: It's a DELL. Lower end of Pentium III's, making it a good deal.
    Cons: Slow motherboard for today's technology.

    Summary: I bought this computer (only my second DELL), in December of 1999. The Dimension XPS T series was DELL's top of the line product at that point. The fastest model was 700 MHz, but I chose the 500 MHz. Whenever purchasing a new computer...NEVER go with...

  • Affordable and simple

    Jun 04 '01
    Pros: Quick setup, great technical resources, easy to customize, easily upgraded.
    Cons: Long wait to connect with a technical assistant using a phone.

    Summary: When I eagerly opened the box of my T500, I was happily greeted with a nice looking computer, a mouse, keyboard and speaker system. It took about a half our to set up, and I was ready to view dvd movies, browse the web, or play games at a fast speed,...

  • Good enough for the vast majority

    Feb 11 '01
    Pros: web browsing, MS office type applications, decent performance and a great value
    Cons: Not enough for today's most demanding games.

    Summary: I bought mine when it first came out (in May of '99). It has and continues to serve me well. I run Windows 2000 (though I used to use Win98). It has been reliable, trouble-free, and more than adequate for my law school years and beyond.
