Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer loads well and offers a nice desktop computer for a reasonable price. It runs quietly and offers a nice option when upgrading. Dell doesn't always offer the best online support though, that is a detraction. I used it to finish school work which included online course work. It offers a good option for a family computer.

A friend ordered the Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer for me since my old one was a dinosaur. When I first started using it, it was wonderful not to be slowed down by an old computer. Love the Samsung widescreen. My previous computer actually caught on fire with no warning. Dell was a new area for me. I hesitated on Dell because of all the problems I had heard about, but my friend is a computer person and knew what she was doing.

I have had this computer two years now and it has progressively grown slower and given more problems than I can even list. I've had to wipe the hard drive twice and start over since January of this year. Since I cannot afford a new computer, I'm stuck with working with the Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer.

My computer use to turn on and reach the main page within two minutes. Now it takes almost ten minutes. I don't have a lot of documentation or photos on the computer as I like to save them to a CD.

I worked on a MAC at my previous job and miss it. Unfortunately...

SteveB says "Excellent value and price" about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

My wife's pc was rather old, and I couldn't upgrade it without replacing the motherboard and processor. I had decided to build a new system for her (for the third time). I'd spec'ed out all the hardware needed, and found the cost to be almost $1200 (quad core processor, 250Gb hard drive, 2Gb RAM, Windows XP). I decided that I'd check out Dell's site and see what they had to offer. I found the Inspiron 530 minitower (quad core processor, 500Gb hard drive, 3Gb Ram, 19" widescreen monitor, Windows XP with the Vista license) for $799. I could not pass that up. The total cost was $849, and shipping was free. The system is three months old, and there's never been a glitch.

I highly recommend Dell.

My Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer is neat, tidy and efficient.

I had a problem with the no "mic" at first but after reaching the 2nd

tech person the problem was solved. This is the 3rd Dell I have

owned but the 15th one that I have purchased for family and friends.

GMJ728 says "Love this PC - fast and fun!" about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

Purchased an Inspiron 530 desktop machine and it's been great. So far no problems whatsoever. Able to use an on-line coupon from coupon mountain and saved a bundle. Love the fact that Dell's website actually lets you built pretty much the exact machine you want and/or need. You can upgrade to whatever specs work for you and your family. We didn't get Vista but Windows XP Prof and we're so glad we did - no problems whatsoever! A great machine!...

This computer has a very nice pig screen, and is pretty fast for anyone who is using the internet to pay bills, check e-mail and play some online games...probably not good for gamers....

Greatone says "Dell bleepin' stinks! " about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

Greatone — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 19:31:50 GMT

I purchased my Dell online and received it on my front door step about a week and a half after I ordered it. The first time I turned it on, everything worked great. Then, it was all downhill from there. After a restart, I was stuck on the Dell screen forever. I tried rebooting and I could just hear the fan stopping and a "beep" sound coming from the tower. Then the fun starts with calling technical support. After going through the terrible voice prompt system, I finally got a live person (from India I'm guessing). I told him what was wrong and then he was going to transfer me to tech support, but instead I get a busy tone. So I had to call back and go through the same thing again! And guess what, the same thing happened a second time. I was livid by this point. The next person I got on the phone heard a mouthful from me, of which I apolized aftewards, but you can see my point. After we diagnosed that the computer was dead, I was transferred to a supervisor so they......

nhialong says "Dell inpiron 530 computer crashed on me" about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

nhialong — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 23:52:16 GMT

I like my compaq computer. I had had it for almost 3 years now. As my kids get older, they started to attach to computer too. So I decided to go and find another computer for me. I went to Walmart and get a very good computer. So I decided to go with the Dell Inpiron 530 Desktop. 640 G of hard drive, 3 G of memory, and a 22" Flat HD screen. Forturnately, it crashed when I came home from work. When ever I turn it on, window did not come on. After a few tries it will come on. But when I log off or turn off, window did not come on again. I decide to go and buy a new one to see if the new one will works. Same "blip" happen again. I can't even get through set up. Now I ended up with two computers. It's time to wrap them up and return the to Walmart. Walmart was fortunate to refund all $1,700.00 back to me. this put my doubt on Dell. For all of you out there. How good is Dell? This is the first time H had bought a Dell Computer....

I have just purchased a new Dell Inspiron 530 computer. I am still finding all the great stuff that comes with it. Before I get ahead of myself I want to say that the website for choosing my new computer was so easy to navigate that I was able to build several different computers to spec and print them out and do serious comparison between the models and all the options. My new computer also arrived very quickly which was a huge help during the holiday season. So this is new Inspiron 530 is quite fast I am able to move at a brisk pace which I really appreciate. The tower is very modern and the portals are in front with very easy access which is great when I need to download photos from my camera or update my ipod. I purchased the wireless mouse and keyboard as well and I find the keyboard very comfortable with a lot of hot key functionality. I am over the top for the wireless mouse as well. It was all easy to set up with great directions provided by Dell. I am sure with more use of my......

We purchased out Dell this past summer. It does a great job. I am able to do every thing from home that I do in the office. I can bring work home and do it in the evenings or on week-ends. I enjoy being able to do my work, and not have to travel to the office.

We have Sudden Link internet service. We purchased Microsoft Office with Word.

KJ says "I really like my computer!" about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

KJ — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 18:12:24 GMT

I've been using PC computers longer than I care to mention, and I've had a wide variety of them: IBM, Compaq, home built, Dell, Matrix, and who knows what else. The Dell Inspirion that I have now is one of the least cumbersome, complicated ones I've had. It seems like they all have their proprietary ticks that make life miserable from the first time you turn them on until you figure out, or get used to, the ticks that come with that system. My current Dell didn't have any of those and I'm so thankful! I really like my computer!...

JKPS613 says "Worst purchase I ever made" about Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop Computer

JKPS613 — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 18:11:57 GMT

Here's my problem: I purchased this computer when I went away to college. You've probably noticed that Dell commercials center on students (at least, they used to). But the computer broke twice within one year - one time when it broke, the screen cracked; to be fair, that was probably something my roommate did. Maybe it was even something I did - all I know is that I looked at the computer one day and the screen was cracked on one side. I continued to use it (colleege student = no money), but the crack just got worse and spread. Eventually 1/4 of the screen was covered in this odd broken pixellation look.

The other time, which was actualy the first time it broke, the power cord stopped working. DHL came to pick it up, and the guy driving the DHL van told me and my mother that he picked up more broken Dells than anything else.

Eventually got rid of it for a refurbished Compaq laptop - way cheaper, and lasted way longer.
