Dell Optiplex 330 Energy Star (core 2 Duo E4500 2.2ghz, 1gb Ram, 80gb Hdd, Xp Home)

 

Dell makes decent home computers. They are not designed for hard core gamers, but they are efficient and get the job done whether it's typing up a resume, doing homework or paying bills. The Dell Optiplex 330 with Intel inside will satisfy most casual...

I think something could be done to make it easier to compare 2 or more computers when an add is sent out. You could highlight 2 or more computers by number or letter, and see what the differences are. Makes it easier to see pros and cons for each...

Okay

 

Well, I sorta think it's in the middle of poor, and good.

Like the preformance on the machine,Excellent design, I would pretty much recommend this machine.

I don't like the Windows XP, because it has terrible speach tools.

Good PC

 

Overall, a good value.

PC booted right up with no problems. I have had no major issues with the hardware or software.

The USB ports on the monitor are a handy feature but mine seem to quit working occasionally.
