The Dells are troublesome, flimsey, The floppies go bad all the time. the floppy push buttons break and pop out on the GX150s. The winchesters blow because the onboard EIDE controllers fail. The drives themselves are standard quality stuff. But any drive can blow if hung on an iffy controller. Also, the smart monitoring warning tends to pop up on some machines and I suspect the controllers are the real culprits here too. As for my home Pavillions, I've never had a failure. Now, with that said I will admit that Dell makes robust quality PC servers and once made fairly decent PCs. But you don't get to the toop by making the best product, just the cheapest one. Crap I tell you! Javier There must be over 2000 compuiters at my company. We tried HP computers for awhile, but gave up on them as they died on a regular basis. We switched to Dell, and have had them ever since with far fewer problems. Gene
