    One of the best reasons for getting a 19" screen is to watch DVDs, play games or do DTP work.
    But with no DVD player or graphics card and only 256Mb of memory this configuration looks wholly unbalanced.
    Personally I'd go for a configuration with a 17" TFT and spend the difference on upgrading some of the components in the box.
    You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.
  • probably ok for office work but no good for games...presume onboard graphics and a paltry 256mb ram, no dvd writer....i guess at least you get a 19inch monitor which is wasted on this system

    the delivery charge is outrageous but as expect from Dell

    If you are capable you could source a better system for the money.....

    the processor is ok for most, as is the hard drive....

    oh and the printer is awful....i have one which i bought for 9.99 a few months back...it isnt worth that!

    this isnt such a good deal, less so when postal price included,
    you can source better deals

    saying that though, if you're a newbie and really HAVE to have a 19" (even though they have the same resoloution as 17" monitors) then its not that bad, but DO read the spec, the base PC has been REALLY cut down here to include the attention grabbing 19" TFT
    money saving my @rse.
    I've spent 10x as much as I would if I had never discovered this website :-)

    Got any tips where I can source a better deal? I only want a 15" tft screen and basic system.

  • Got any tips where I can source a better deal? I only want a 15" tft screen and basic system.

    The best deal currently is on the far superior 8400 system for £562 including VAT and Delivery. You get a pentium 4, 15"tft screen,
    pci express graphics, 512mb ram and 160gb Hard Drive plus a free printer.

    Put in code D - D01841 in the evalue box on the website for more details.

    However if you want a good basic system then you can get the dimension 3000 with a 15" tft monitor for £385 inclusive.

    Put in code D-D01302a in the evalue box and change the service pack warranty to 1 year

    Go through Rpoints and get cashback as well
