Dell Vostro 200

The Vostro 200 is the first desktop PC in Dell's new small-business line of computers and peripherals. The machine's "200" designation might lead you to believe that it's a step above entry level, but from what we saw, it's more like a 100-level...

Small case ; SATA-connected optical drive

No tool-less components ; Optical drive catches on front panel

This entry-level small-business PC is inexpensive but offers no noteworthy features other than Dell's business services.

Dell Vostro 200

The Dell Vostro 200 is the first Dell desktop specifically tailored for small business.

No extra included software (aside from Google Desktop and Toolbar). Less expensive alternative to OptiPlex desktops. Intelligent port cover(s). Dual-core performance. Good expansion space. Small-business-oriented features, such as 10GB DataSafe online...

New model name may confuse new users. No included Internet security software.

The Dell's first small-business desktop is basically the business doppelganger of the Inspiron: similar case, specs, and configurations, but it is all business and comes with Vstore services that tailor it for the SMB space.

Dell Vostro 200 Desktop Computer

For small-business buyers with little or no access to IT help, the Vostro 200 is a terrific value. Just know that it isn't aimed at—and likely won't satisfy—home users.

Comprehensive support options

Unremarkable performance outside of basic office applications

Double your display real estate by adding a second monitor. It's a snap: Here's how
