Freshly Unwrapped

By goodcop

If you are thinking of putting this under your desk, well then you might has well be like keeping your '65 Corvette in a closet. I am proudly displaying my in living room. Looks like I will be demonstrating the killer graphics capabilities on my flat scre...

I just took my new baby out of the box and I am in love! This thing is a beauty. It has everything and screams when fragging. I love the LCD screen and the inputs on the front of the machine as it makes access extremely easy.

Very pleased!

By MikeyCA

The tower (although larger than I expected) is quite attractive with the piano-black finish on the front panel and matte silver on the sides. It was easy to set up as usual and I was up and running in no time. The leather portfolio for the manual and inst...

I'm just not a fan of Windows Vista. I know that due to the built-in LCD SideShow viewer, it doesn't make sense to bundle this computer with XP, but Vista just hits so many bottlenecks that it's a huge disappointment on the switch. Hopefully the service p...

Awesome.

By ladiesman

Dell should allow you to remove the SideShow screen to take some cost off. I find it useless, myself. It's neat....but useless.

Everything. With the Quad-Core and 512mb 8800, this machine is awesome. It's fast, it's beautiful, it's quiet.

None.

This Thing ROCKS !!

By Jagger

This computer has excellent build quality, excellent looks, and excellent power.

I got the fully loaded model with the Q6700 quad core, 4gb DDR2 ram, 768mb 8800GTX, the ATI tuner with the Xcelerator, 20inch screen with built-in webcam and mic, etc, etc, etc. Well it can do anything I throw at it, I do alot of heavy video editing and g...

1. It is a bit bigger then I thought it would be.(not really a big deal)

XPS 420

By Staci

Everything, I'm especially liking the LCD screen on the PC.

The only thing I don't like about the Dell XPS systems is that they have that vent like hole (lol I'm not sure what else to call it) and I have no idea how to clean it! Other then that, not one thing I don't like.

XPS 420 Power

By rogerxps2007Fan

This Dell PC is one powerful and quiet system. I had my Dell XPS 420 built with an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q660 with 2 MB of RAM(before Dell offered the 3 MB RAM deal) ; NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS ; SoundBlaster X-Fi card ; blue tooth card reader ; blue tooth...

I didn't like the blue tooth keyboard that came with my system. There are no led lights on the keyboard to tell you when the CAPS, NUM or Scroll lock is turned on. The Media buttons don't light up either. I guess the reason Dell didn't add led lights is t...

Fantastic Computer

By AndrewJ

Best computer for under $1500.

The design is cool and set up was easy. It does everything I need it to do and more. I actually have it on top of my desk as opposed to uder it, it's just too cool to hide. Vista performs better then the MAC commercials would have you believe, you just ne...

If you have the blue tooth keyboard and mouse, disable the fire wall installed with your antivirus software and use the windows firewall as most antivirus softwares block the connections from time to time. It took me three days to figure that out. It woul...

Great Looks, some redundancy

By JonasB

This is a very cool system, but I have had driver glitches galore, and some of that is of course's Vista's fault. The Soundcard that came with the system died within 48 hours, and I bought a new one rather than go through the hassle of getting one from De...

Beautiful finish and build quality

The Sideshow little 1 inch screen gimmick is all but a waste of time
