Now I can see why you're a top reviewer. Your review had lots of details, and I love when people write reviews and seperate them into sections. For people who need fast help, all they have to do is scroll down to a section in your review. It is very informative and really gives a person who wants to buy this computer a lot of details.

Great review--but I want to point out a couple things (Reply to this comment)

I have a Dell 8200 and I love it...for the most part. My only complaint is that it only has 4 expansion slots, and if you order the optional USB 2.0 card, then all expansion slots are filled. I found this out when I tried installing my Firewire card--I had to yank the modem to make room. I wish Dell would have built-in USB 2.0 and perhaps a few additional expansion slots.

On the other hand, Dell makes it wonderfully simple to install additional drives. They provide no-brainer slide-in rails for you to attach to your hard disk (or to CD-ROM-size devices) and all you have to do is slide in the drive and hook up the cables. It's so easy! I didn't even break a sweat.

Excellent review. I use a Dell Dimension 8200 as well, and you are completely accurate in your description of the computer and the company.

Great job.
