Title: mustang's vostro Date: March 26, 2008
ProsA lot of bang for the buck, I like everything about the unit from the compact size to it's performance. I use this machine in my automotive repair business for running my business software, it does an excellent job. It is a quiet machine.
ConsNone...

Review:I have been buying Dell products since 2000, have purchased six systems & am very satisfied with the quality & service. The first system which I purchased in 2000 has been running 24/7 for eight years without one problem. (Can't beat that)

Title: vostro desktop 200 Date: March 25, 2008
Prosgreat value for the money bar-none,, looked at other systems with same specs and none came close,, most only the tower,,, mine came with a 22" lcd widescreen ,, for $520 including taxes,,,
Consdvdr-w drive makes loud noises when used for ripping,, also no firmware updates for drive,, dell should have firmware on website for ease update,,

Review:would be nice to have a choice of other colors for the case so it can look and feel more of a custom build,,, blue, red, clear, purple, etc..

ProsSolid machine, and it would be hard to beat the price anywhere else. We needed a solution for basic, office computer work - this fits that description perfectly.
ConsNone yet

Review:The addition of a 19" widescreen for a grand total of $299 (at the time of this review) makes this an amazing deal.

ProsGreat work machine. For the average user this PC will run most any windows software without a hitch. Unless your doing high end production of graphics or gaming it will fill almost all computing needs.
ConsOn board video could use a more ram.

Review:The reason I like video cards to have more on Board ram is for the viewing of pictures and video. Dedicated ram for video enhances performance of the system overall.

Title: Vostro 200 Date: March 19, 2008
ProsWe have purchased 3 or 4 of these machines and so far they have performed perfectly. They are fast and I really like the lack of Bloatware it makes setting these up for our network a dream. They run very quiet which is very important in an office with 5 or 6 PCs running all at once.
ConsSo far the only dislike I have is the door for the CD\DVD ROM drive it opens in such a way you cannot use the eject button to close the Drawer and sometimes the tray catches on the door as it closes.

Still have the option to choose Win XP or Vista.
ConsNone.

Review:There are better/stronger Dell desktops and workstations to choose from, however if you are looking for a value priced desktop for everyday tasks, this is the one for you.

ConsHad some hardware/software issues. Had to reformat one machine a week after we got it. Otherwise, pretty solid. Also, if you security is essential, forcing a user to have several open USB ports in order to run a keyboard/mouse is a tough sell with the number of thumb drives out there that can be used to siphon off critical files, etc.
