Dell Dimension 3100 GREAT Computer (221 words)

I currently own a Dimension 3100. It has a 2.8GHZ Intel Pentium 4 Processor, 160GB Hard Drive, DVD Burner, as well as CD Burner obviously, 2GB of RAM (upgraded from 1GB from crucial.com, highly recommended), XP Home, a 17" flat panel monitor, and a Dell wireless keyboard and mouse all for $400 (wait for Dell's magazines to come up with some great deals). I have used this computer for a couple years and it has been amazing! I do computer work for people all the time, (graphics, web design, etc), as well as fix computers. I have found Dell computers to be the easiest to troubleshoot and quickly solve the problem. It has been a very nice computer for these ...  Read the complete review

I received This computer for my Christmas a few years ago now and it has never failed me yet!!! I got it with an updated sound card and it sounds amazing with a normal desktop speaker or even with my professional pro-audio speakers! Which is good as I use these to do mixing and recording. The screen is a 15-inch flat-screen which amazing quality and I can't really say anything bad about it. It comes with a 15-inch Flat panel monitor as standard (when I got it anyway) The computer has a CD drive and optional Zip and Floppy drive. The CD drive also doubles as a DVD drive and a CD writer, which is great for having friends over and watching a ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Dell Dimension 3100: See you in Dell... (556 words)
by - written on 08/08/08 (Very useful, 67 readings)
Rating:

The first new quite powerful PC I have ever owned, and still my current machine. It has come down in price since I acquired mine 2 and a half years ago, and I've seen the price fluctuate considerably, it is currently about fifty pounds cheaper today but I believe it has been as much a £200 pounds cheaper in that time. Do not quote me on this, but watch the price before you buy, special offers can appear suddenly. The telephone support line is pretty good as is their back-up service. A dead monitor was replaced quite speedily, though you have to think very practically when dealing with the knowledgable efficient Indian call centire staff, because unforseen ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review An average computer at an average price (276 words)
by - written on 15/03/06 (Useful, 2087 readings)

This computer is a reliable computer but the can improve in terms of speed and storage. With only 256MB ram the computer can be a bit slow. When I first bought this computer it was quite quick but after a while it got slower and slower. The storage (40GB) is not impressive and you cannot really store much on the computer. The only thing that has improved since the Dell dimension 3000 is that it is more quiet and just slightly better. The one thing that really disappointed me was the graphics card. The graphics was not very good and i didnt like it at all. The two good things about this computer are that it comes with a great flat screen monitor ...  Read the complete review
