julialopez1 says "A good starter Computer" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

julialopez1 — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 21:32:52 GMT

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 is no longer a line of computers that Dell makes these days. This computer is a good one to give to a child or to donate to a family in need of a computer that gives them access to online.

Squier822 says "The Dell Dimension 2400 is the best desktop I have ever owned. " about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

I have had this Dell Dimension 2400 for about 6 years. The only thing I had to do to it was to add more memory, and that was extremely easy. Everything I try to do with it, it seems to handle easily. I was told by online friends that Dell was not too reputable, to them, because they had heard horror stories about friends and neighbors losing all of their info. This computer, knock on wood, has never crashed on me. My son uses it for playing games and chatting, and he hasnt had any problems with it, either. It burns CD's easily, plays games, and pretty much can handle whatever you want it to do. I am not a person that is easily impressed, so this is a darn good review for Dell. I cant think of one complaint that I have about it, so, I wont put any. If you happen to run across one at a yard sale, or in a resale shop, it is definitely worth your time to pick it up and see what all it needs, and if they are reasonable enough, buy the thing anyway. As I said, it would definitely make a good...

vada10101 says "No disapointments with this system" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

I've owned a few different computers in my time and this Dell Dimension 2400 is perfect for me to surf the web, download, burn or play anything I want. Of course I did upgrade the standard 512 mb of ram to 1 gb of ram. I also upgraded to a slightly better graphics card to allow better gaming. I also added another internal 80 gb hard drive to allow more space for music and gaming. All together, I only spent an additional $100 in upgrades to make this computer a lot faster and bigger. I purchased it used for $50 but had it checked out (prior to payment) for viruses, etc. This system was, and is, fully upgradeable. I spend hours a day on a computer so trust when I say I can't and won't work or play on a bad computer. I definitely recommend the Dell Dimension 2400 to anybody looking for a system for home or small office. Perfect for the family or kids to do homework, book reports games or using the internet.

barbwa22 says "The Dell 2400 desktop is great for any home." about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

Here's the thing you need to know about me right off the bat; I am a mac fanatic. Now, I understand the price of most mac computers is way out of some people's range. Here is what I have to say to you...

If you have a family or you're a student and an internet junkie, or perhaps you need to transfer all your personal files to a computer, then get a Dell. It's the the office computer for your personal needs along with the capacity to goof off. Advantage: no boss!

Most Dell desktop computers come with plenty of space and speed to satisfy even some of the pickiest of amateur techies. If you love your computer at work, (and we all know it's a dell), then why not take one home? You can put all your personal information on the spacious hard drive. This means less paper for those of you going green. Family photos and contacts can now be more easily accessable to everyone in the family to be emailed, printed, and even doctored up for any occassion.

The only problem will be sharing. Enjoy your...

Bruno1 says "Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop-- It seems to work okay for awhile." about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

Bruno1 — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 19:40:05 GMT

Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer. It seems to be alittle slow, and it crashes quit a bit. I like it at first. But I would like get a laptop from Microsoft windows. As they say on TV, that if you find what you want it's your to keep. And on the TV, they show the customer at the store looking for a computer. And when they find it, and take it to the register to check out. And when they get there, then someone hands them money. But you don't see who hands them the money.

Which according what I can tell from the TV commercial. You are getting the laptop for free. I hope that is correct.

marcelle1944 says "My Dell computer is my lifeline to the world !!!!" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

marcelle1944 — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 17:47:40 GMT

My Dell computer is perfect for a computer challenged user like me. I have had a major virus and been hacked, but we (my Dell and I) have overcome and we are still up and running. I am a great-grandma with children and grandchildren spread around the country so I do a lot of emailing. I am also PR director for an all volunteer organization called Silent Santa, so all year I am doing massive word processing projects which I could not do without my user fiendly Dell PC. While my Dell is over four years old, which some consider obsolete, it has been well used and is still cranking out my letters, press releases, appeals, and business cards. Someday, when I get the funds to buy a newer computer, it will still be a Dell, and I will pass this one on to one of my grandchildren. By the way, my husband loves to play games on my Dell too. Sometimes when he can't sleep at night, I find him sitting aat my desk playing pinball or Luxor.

TravisKunze says "Good for basic users, but not if you want to upgrade it." about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

Dell Dimension 2400

The Dell Dimension 2400 is a good PC for people who want to use it for basic things like checking your e-mail, social networking, watching a video here or there, or listening to music. What the Dell Dimension 2400 lacks is its Graphics Power, it comes with a very cheap Graphics card where you can only choose from two resolutions. IT IS NOT EASILY UPGRADEABLE!!! The Motherboard featured on this PC is very aged and will not allow for newer video cards, or processors.

This PC would not be good for running any other operating system other then Windows XP, because of its lack up upgrade-ability.

patteiken says "I am happy with Dell Computers" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

patteiken — Tue, 05 May 2009 15:07:09 GMT

My last two computers have been Dell that I have ordered on line through Dell. I was very happy how I could add the hardware and software features that I wanted. The computer was easy to set up and easy to transfer data from one computer to the next. I needed more usb ports on the computer as I had to add a hub and I wish the computer would come with more ports. The keyboard was easy to use and i like the number pad on the right. I wish I would have ordered a wireless mouse as the way I have to set up my computer the cord on the mouse isn't long enough. Dell tech support has been great and when I had a system problem they helped me the first time. During the purchase process I had some questions and the Dell people were able to help me figure out the best solution for my needs. I also think that their site is great to build a computer to meet your needs and it is so easy to use. I have a laptop also but still do the bulk of my work on my desktop.

rbdew1 says "average " about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

rbdew1 — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 16:38:10 GMT

Within a month of buying my new Dell 2400 the motherboard had to be replaced. Customer service at Dell was fine. The repair man that they contracted with was a jerk. He had an unlisted number for his business, and never left a message when he called. He canceled the order, and I had to start over again.

beknice says "This Dell is not that great in ROM memory" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

beknice — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 14:11:39 GMT

This is regarding a Dell Demention 2400 PC. In order to play some games, I have had to remove all my Window Office programs,and keep little in any added folders, and no printer in order to keep 15-20% free space available. I have only one game on this Dell and even though it is defraged at least once a week there is still lag on the game.

IrishRush says "Great computer, great value" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

IrishRush — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 20:56:24 GMT

My Dell Dimension 2400 is my third computer and has made me a confirmed Dell fan. The computer was relatively inexpensive, top of the line the year I bought it (I've had it for a few years now) and has been utterly reliable.

This computer came with XP installed on it and had all the usual software tha tyou get when you buy a Dell. It has a 2GB Pentium processor, came with 256MB RAM, good video and audio, came with a 17" monitor (not flat panel) and 2 speakers. All for under $500. It has never once crashed on me. It has been completely reliable and steady. The only upgrade I've done has been to put in 2 GB of RAM. I would like to upgrade the video card but the ones available that would fit this computer have gotten some pretty bad reviews, so I think I'm staying with the chip it came with.

Overall this has been, and continues to be a great value. When I'm ready to get another computer, and that won't be for a couple more years, it will most likely be another Dell. I've had nothing but...

Pros
none

Cons
The Dell Dimension is great PC for simple everyday users, who just check there e-mail! But its not for graphic artist, gamers, or programmers. The HardDrive is glitched and space is taken up quickly. The PC is difficult to upgrade, have to replace motherboard to upgrade parts.

While using my Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer I found it did everything i wanted it to do right out of the box? I was amazed at how well it handled Microsoft Windowns XP Professional. This Computer seems perfect for any home user. Although the gaming on it was not the best that it could have been most games were atleast playable. Now the new high end graphical games dont play as well as they would on the new computers older DELLS are nothing like the newer computers that are being used today....

darrellr says "Dell Dimension 2400 Services Not Included" about Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop Computer

darrellr — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 14:26:44 GMT

The best computer in the market i a DELL, unfortunately I picked the Dimension 2400 (only my first mistake). I bought the system from a rent to own place (second mistake) and with doing that when you call customer service with a problem you, are directed to a "different" customer service. I was told that the system I was purchasing had Microsoft Office, I though that included Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint. It turns out that I actually had Wordperfect 11. You have a Wordpad Not Microsoft word. I have had to wipe out the entire system and reinstall my programs several times.
