4/29/2010 8:53:57 PM Brand New DELL Inspiron April 2010 I've been disappointed. I've been careful and trying not to feed too much for the system to absorb such as switching between different addresses and multi-tasking. I have a high-end new DELL with 8GB DRAM and still your DELL will freeze and I end up shutting down pushing the 'off' button an then booting up again. Microsoft Windows 7 may be at fault. It's a pain in the neck for someons like me where I write a lot of Excel applications for financial and investment applications. I think you (or Microsoft Windows 7) has a problem and it is not acceptable. I hope you'll re-program and clean up the mess. I am steadfastly not migrating to IMac but I am disappointed and annoyed with the Microsoft platform. Samuel A. Otis 21 Cherry Street Wenham, MA 01984 saotis21@yahoo.com

11/29/2011 4:29:20 PM I bought this PC early this year. It has performed above my expectaions for speed and versatility . windows 7 is very good i think and the more memory seems to made a big diff.

  2.00 out of 4
3/15/2012 1:49:10 PM I bought this Dell Mid 2011 after having 2 Gateway's. I was very satisfied at first as the ESTNOD32 ANTIVIRUS $ was installed and after Using WORD for years this one had Microsoft Works. It started changing my Word Documents into Works Documents. Of course that screwed up my spread sheets and other financial documents so the vendor who sold this computer to use figured out a way to load load part of Windows XP mode so I could use my word documents however it seems they fight each other and Works overpowers Word and changes some of my documents to Works. I HATE THAT DAMN PROGRAM. But have never asked the vendor to try and remove it as there are too many things in Word format that have been changed to Works format. So I just complain. Recently it seems that malware and trojan and other viruses get by ESETNOD32 ANTIVIRUS$. They are quaranteened but I feel my computer is not the best as I have lost some of my genealogy work from 15-18 years ago. I think the Dell has been good but it seems the firewall just has never worked very well. It is so bad now that I have to unplug my power source to shut the system down. I am hoping the PC MATIC I just bought will correct some of these things unless it fights the ESETNOD#@Antivirus4 & updates.
