Dell Inspiron 531s

 

The slim Dell Inspiron 531s is a small-form-factor desktop that doesn't exact a price penalty for its size. It comes with a fairly powerful processor, 2GB of system memory (important in these Vista-oriented days) and discrete graphics. Oh, yeah, and it...

2GB of RAM. Discrete graphics card. Option for no pre-installed bloatware. Nice, space-saving design

DVD-ROM/CD-RW Combo drive. Vista Home Basic. Expansion cards must be half-height ; Watch the Dell Inspiron 531s Video Review

The Dell Inspiron 531s shows where value desktops are heading: small but loaded.

Great specs for price ”

 

I purchased this computer, like many who own it did, around three years ago when Wal-Mart was carrying it. I opted for the upgrade over a model for $100 cheaper and have had very few issues with it since, with minimal safeguarding.

The Dell Inspiron is an average computer for home use. ”

 

There are days I love my dell inspiron PC and days I'm definitely ready to trade it in. When it works, it's perfect for me, but when it doesn't it is very frustrating. I would have to say that it has been disappointing how often my family members have...
