|
4/23/2010 4:54:13 PM | It's a Dell - Have been very satisfied with it since day one. What I really like is the technical support that dell has, they are always very helpful and always works out the problem. The hardware itself I have never had any big problems just needed some speed. |
|
9/14/2010 4:53:44 PM | this computer has been a reliable workhorse and reasonably fast gaming computer for 8 years now. I upgraded the sound card and videocard, and other than being incompatible with some newer games, I feel it is hard to beat. FYI: I had a little problem for a while with malware and viruses, but Threatfire has eliminated ALL problems of that nature. Thank you. |

6/22/2010 4:28:48 PM | the ibky thing i don't like is the fact that it was buikt with such expensive, hard to get ram.

11/11/2017 6:08:30 PM | Old Dell Dimension 8200 put into service a couple of days ago because my other Old Dell Optiplex 330 went flaky-it's a secure machine, because it's never connnected to the internet. And after only two days of use, after data migration from the 330, the 8200 is locking up just like the 330 was. I replaced the coin battery in the 8200, and, lacking antivirus/antimalware, am adding the 8200 to my suite of PCMATIC klunkers. The 330 will be the next addition, if its new battery does the trick. Whew! |

5/16/2009 2:08:54 AM | problems are with Windows XP, not hardware. |
|
5/18/2009 4:29:05 PM | Considering it's almost ten years old, it does the job. It was great in the beginng, now it is so slow. However, Windows 7 running on a sepaerate drive, runs much faster. XP on the main drive is slothful. And I even reinstalled the os. |
|
8/21/2009 4:57:44 AM | Doesn't seem to be running like it should. |

|
9/3/2009 8:40:31 PM | multi-tasking can slow the machine significantly |
|
9/11/2009 10:51:10 PM | I've had it for years, so of course I realise it isn't the best machine out there. However, it's only recently (within the past couple days) that it's been running extremely slow. I was really sure why this was. I regularly defragment my drive. I regularly delete my temporary files. I regularly scan for malware and viruses. Really, there's no reason that I can think for it to be running slow. |

7/27/2010 6:24:35 PM | I utilized your free trial in May and had it running much better after you cleaned it up! My niece was visitng and used the computer and junked it up again. I recently purchased PCMatic but it is still very slow to start up and lags. I did an upgrade to IE8 but uninstalled it as it kept locking up and kicking me off sites. I still wonder if it doesn't have malware or spyware causing problems? Thanks |
