What's great about it: Great performance. Easy to setup.
What's not so great: Nothing yet.
Very easy to setup. I use this computer mainly for editing photos, Facebook, remote access to work and basic Office & email functions. (Do not use it for gaming.)
It is very responsive and I have had great luck so far with it. I have only been using it for about 1 month so far.

What's great about it: all i need for less than $400
this is my 4th Dell computer, and after suffering for the past 3 years with a Vista operating system, i am so glad to have moved on to Windows 7. this computer is faster and much easier to organize and find files. although it does come with a bunch of programs that are of no interest to me, one change from the prior platform which is NOT an improvement is the new Windows movie maker program, which many others have mentioned is a step backward from features available in prior versions. the main objection is not being able to precisely cue clips and photos with imported audio. other than this shortcoming, this is a great computer for my needs, which are not very demanding compared to those who depend on their computers to play games or download/stream movies. and contrary to the best buy description of the product, it does NOT come with the system restore discs, which the owner has to create if desired.

What's great about it: It's fast and quiet.
What's not so great: It's plasticky compared to my old Dell, it's big but I don't mind.
I've been a Dell customer for a long time so when my old Dell desktop died, I was happy to find this new Dell to replace it with. I haven't had it very long, but I can only say it's working great. Dell support was fantastic when I contacted them for the emergency disks for the computer. It is whisper quiet and I'm enjoying its speed compared to my newly departed old Dell. I think it is a great value for the money. Thanks Best Buy!

What's not so great: Haven't discovered anything 'not so great' yet.
When my very old Dell died I placed the order online, picked up at the store, and was back up and running within a couple hours. Easy setup.
While the Best Buy guys were bringing the box up from the back, the tech guys answered questions about accessing old drive. Checkout was painless.
This Dell, as usual, is reliable and suits my needs. I don't do gaming, so can't comment on that. Did have a 1 TB drive previously, but the 500 GB works for me as I'm keeping most of the archive on the old drive and using it as external storage.
The PC came with free Norton software, but they did forget to key in the authorization code at the register. I don't use Norton so uninstalled it. If you don't uninstall, the reminder box keeps popping up. Curious about that alert, I called BB and you do have to take care of that at the store. So if you want the free Norton, make certain they authorize during the checkout. Otherwise you will need to go to a BB with your receipt. The Norton disk was attached to the outside of the box.... an add-on.
Re this PC.... Great value for the price.

What's great about it: Great bang for your buck.
What's not so great: Not a gaming powerhouse.
This is my second Dell PC. My first Dell was a fully loaded XPS Gaming Rig. It was an absolute beast, with nVidia Graphics and dual 10,000RPM hard drives. Great machine, cutting edge back in 2006. But it had taken many blows, from gaming glitches to web viruses. So I needed a new computer, but I didn't need quite the extreme gaming specifications anymore. Maybe I've matured and I focus on work a bit more. This little kit gets the job done. Plus its compatible with my Dell Monitor and 5.1 Surround Sound system that came with my old XPS, BRILLIANT!

What's great about it: easy set up and price
What's not so great: memory configuration
The out of box experience was painless. This is an easy setup for anyone. The machine runs cool, quiet and fast. Swapped the PSU out for a ANTEC BP550 PLUS RT, added VGA GIGABYTE GV-N560UD-1GI GTX560TI and mated with a 20" Acer LED monitor. Now it is a wolf in sheep's clothing -- runs BF3 on high, no problem.
That said. The biggest disappointment was that Dell loaded the memory with 4 x 1GB in stead of 2 X 2GB -- making a memory upgrade to 8GB costly. Why advertise that the machine has 4 slots and expandable if you are going to plug all the slots and make it "non-expandable?"
This product is... easy to set up, easily upgraded

What's great about it: Speed, harddrive, graphics card
What's not so great: Front USB ports, high pitch noise when sleeping
The harddrive is the perfect size for me, I didn't need a full TB of space. The 7200rpm makes for great speed along with the 4GB of RAM preinstalled. I liked the fact that Win7 was already installed for me, not that it would be such a hassel. I prefer Intel processors, but I also trust the AMD processors.
A few things that kind of bug me:
1. The USB ports in the front are spaced too closely to the flip-down peice so some devices won't fit. For example, I bought a wireless card and its width makes it impossible to be installed on the front, but it works fine in the back.
2. This machine is very quiet while its on, but when its sleeping it makes a very high pitched sound that gets irritating. Probably has something to do with the fan.

What's great about it: Easy to set up, fast,excellent price,quiet
What's not so great: Absolutely nothing so far
Ordered this online from BB-picked it up in Waynesville,NC store(excellent help from everyone there)-brought it home, had it set up and running with a recovery disc in less than an hour. Everything is working great. For our home use it is outstanding. It loads quickly, has a good sleep mode and has a program by Accuweather that I would love to be able to load on my other comp. It is fast ,quiet and has access to usb and media cards on the front-unlike the Inspiron 670 I almost purchased thru Dell. I read a lot of bad reviews about small form factor comps with the 220W power supplies and was glad this was not one of those-it is compact but still has room to add devices to it.

I got this dell desktop for christmas thinking it would be the perfect computer and at a good price too. Complete opposite. I've had other dell's in the past they have worked with few problems at all. When i set it up it would not install any of my software. Another thing is that it is sssssssssssssssssssooooooooooooooooooooooo SLOW. I have an old dell laptop with windows xp that runs 10x faster. I also bought a monitor to go with it the thing frose when i plugged in the monitor. This thing went back only two days after i bought it.

What's not so great: McAfee and other junk, no backup disks included
I usually build my own desktops. My grandfather was using an Emachine from 2002 that I kept running for a while. It finally died, and he needed a computer. I contemplated building him one, but realized that was too much work. So I went on the web and found 3 computers in his price range. Ended up choosing this one. Once we got it back I had it all set up in 5 minutes and turned it on. Turned on fairly quick, just has too much junk on it (McAfee, Dell Software..). There is a program to burn backup disks because they are NOT included. Unfortunately, a Windows could not activate message came up a month later. I was unable to find a fix so I had to reinstall Windows. Dell sent me the OS disk and the drivers and utilities with no hassle. Ran much faster without all the junk. I put on Avast Free antivirus and a few utilities like a hard drive defragmenter, and this thing flew! Would highly recommend to anyone on a budget that wants a good computer. Very impressed with all the features as well.

What's not so great: Mouse could be better
I bought this to supplement my existing home office and I could not have been happier. Setup is simple and painless. There is limited bloatware and the performance is top notch right out of the box. This was my third Dell purchase this year alone simply due to the quality I get for the value. This system has no problem running multiple applications, I am able to play all my MMO's, run Photoshop and do the random daily things we all do on a computer. This is an excellent purchase for the home needing a solid everyday use computer.
