Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Strange noise Comment: Bought this product because I did not want to rely only on my laptop and the price seemed reasonable. I am not doing any fancy stuff with it, so ...
It worked fine until - after three months - it developed this noise, not very loud, but ... the person I share my office with is not very happy ... and me neither. I heard about fan noise in DELL computers ... ha, here it is.
Also it came with Windows XP not Vista as advertised.
Sorry, only two points, would not buy again. Customer Rating: Summary: Super quiet, excellent performance, small footprint Comment: This is a great looking box with good performance for basic home computing. The only downside for me (I own a slightly upgraded version than the one shown here - better processor, graphics card, hard drive, Vista Home Premium) is that the included audio card is below par. However, it was easy to fix it with an external USB sound card for around $20.
The slim form factor makes the product look nice, but at the cost of making it less upgradable (i.e. full size graphics cards won't work)
The vostro does not come with a ton of junk software (unlike my Sony Vaio).
The fan and hard drive are very quiet, which makes it great for a home computer.
I considered this along with the HP slimline. I went with the Dell because it was quieter, was cheaper for a similar configuration and since I needed to place it on the floor, this just looked better :) Also, the build quality is surprisingly good. Customer Rating: Summary: YES - compute this! Comment: I bought this to replace my computer that crashed right after Christma and I was surviving on my laptop. It arrived 2 days after I placed the order with Dell and I have to tell you that is mighty fast service. I absolutely love it - it takes up so little desk space that you hardly know it is there and the processor is so fast it feels like I have come out of the stone age. I prefer Windows XP but since this only came with Windows Vista I am getting used to the new software, but overall I would say this is the computer to have if you run a home based business and the Dell tech support system is fantastic. You cannot go wrong with all you get for $499.99.
