The Dell Inspirion 530 desktop I am using is a very basic computer to say the least. There are many features I dislike. It is loaded with impractical programs for today's consumer. Vista is not a widely used program yet they have it pre-programmed and require a host of unnecessary steps for its removal. The layout of the screens are also odd and inconvenient. With normal operating systems like XP, the applications are normal but vista makes you use tabs like "review" and "view". What normal person knows what is in there? The tower is also configured oddly. There is supposed to be a D and... review »

As a graphics designer, with my own graphics business at home, I wouldn't use any other computer, love my Mac! The Mac has all the essentials built right in, including protection from PC viruses, which gives a very secure feeling. Every Mac is secure right out of the box, so you can safely do your work, email, games, photos etc. without worry.

The modern designs make a Mac a conversation piece. My beautiful twenty three inch flat acrylic screen allows viewing two full pages at one time, a timesaver when doing catalog, books, programs, two-sided brochures, or for viewing two files easily at the...

Velocity Micro has earned a reputation in our lab as one of the better desktop builders, and the Edge Z30 gives us no reason to change our opinion. The inside of the case is as clean as can be, and there's little about the overall design we would change. The Edge Z30 also strikes an interesting contrast to the Dell Studio XPS 435, a much larger tower system that Dell introduced a few months back.

We like the aesthetics of the Studio XPS 435, and it gives you plenty of room to expand, but with no second graphics card slot, Dell could get away with losing a bit of upgrade room and making the case...

windows 7 is very easy to use but it will not take all of my old programs. it tells me I have to go and buy the latest versions. I don't like that. I have a usb card that it will not use and will lock up the whole puter when I put it in. I took this card out of my old emachine so I know it works on emachines. it just don't work with windows 7. I love the new backgrounds and how you can make it change with your own pics. I love the lock out so no one can use your puter while you are gone. I hated that you had to have a guest on XP. that did not keep people out.. if I would have to buy it again I...

The feature i like most about the HPw1858 is that it will fit most anywhere. The modem will stand up or lay flat. The monitor i have is 19" and the screen is perfect size, large enough to use large font or see an entire page when online as well as being large enough to show DVD movies.This DVD viewing is a feature i enjoy. This desktop model was purchased from WalMart with Vista Home Premium installed. A negative with this setup is there is no manual to consult, i must go online or scroll thru options hoping to come upon what i need. Another negative is no photo/card making program came with it.... review »

I got this computer from someone who didn't need it anymore.  When I first got it, it was missing a harddrive so I installed a seagate I had and booted it up.  When I initially looked up the model online, I discovered there are two T5048 and T5048A.  I realized I have T5048A and could find very little regarding its specs.   I bought some new ram and I got the pc 4200 1gbDDR2 ram and it works perfectly.   It has onboard ati 200 xpress, it's really an ok video card, it does take away from your ram, 128 for the video.  It's great if you're not a gamer.  The only games I can play with this...

 I am a computer geek, and I love m dell inspiron 5305 disktop computer. It is very fast, and loads anything I want fast and accurately. It is sleek, and clean looking, and doesnt clutter up my office. It has a lot of different features, especially ones with power point, excell, microsoft word, and other important features as well. It is easy to turn on, and boots up almost immediately. There is no lag, or errors. I use it every day, and it is just as easy to work from day to day. I have not let gotten any virus' because there is a very good infection free prgram. although it has frozen...

This was a brand new computer that was given to me as a gift. Dell rocks but this Vista program sucks. Because it was given as a gift I had no input on the software or the hardware. Vista is not compatible with some files I had made in Windows 2007. Most people do not have Vista therefore they can't read the files I have made on this computer. I also would have liked it to also have had an  A drive, floppy, besides the CD drive.

When I bought this computer in February 2006 I knew it was supposed to the "Cadillac" of computers but had never owned a Sony Vaio before.  It has lived up to its reputation.  This tower has Windows XP Media Center, 300 GHZ, 1 GB Ram and a 200 GB drive which is more than adquate for my needs.  I find that it loads quickly even with all the programs I have on it that load at start up.  It has the restore feature that lets you restore it to an earlier date if you run into problems and I have used this feature many time after some new software or software update has caused problems.  I am not...

I bought this computer in 2004 and it has been good to me, but it is time to upgrade the entire computer. I tried to upgrade the processor, but was unsuccessful. I did upgrade the RAM from 256 kb to 1 gb. I would not recommend upgrading a computer. The computer gave no noticable increase in speed. I have decided to purchase my 4th pc since 1995...Yes I have been at computers since the Windows 3 era. That is the era that required a few lines to save a file, open a file, etc. I am upgrading this computer to the HP Touchsmart all-in-one. Even Dell has upgraded this category of computers. The dimension...

This computer comes with a ram size of 512mb. You can upgrade however there is a limit of 3gb of ram in the XP operating system. The operating system is wonderful. I have had this computer now for around five years and nothing has failed. That by itself is wonderful. If you want a long lasting, quiet, cheap, and powerful computer, this is a must. Now if you are a heavy gamer, you WILL need to upgrade the AMD graphics card. I can however play the all popular WoW game. It may take a few seconds to load but it really still does out perform most older computers. So if you are wanting a computer with...
