+ very fast delivery. More than enough USB ports.Very quick start up compared to my old machine with XP Pro.

- No internal modem. No handbook. No vista disc ? Having major problems at present with my dial up service. Removed the McAfee as I had experienced that before slowing things up. Disabled the windows auto up date as it was trying to download a huge file. Still not performing well.

Score 9.0/10

+ fast, I mean really fast! went from an pentium 3 to this quad core and it was Phenomenal. handles everything I can throw at it with ease. Exceptional value for money. love the easy access USB's and the general look of the tower good build and design quality.

- Wish I had the dollar to spare to get the next one up with the proper video card and bigger hard drive but well impressed with this and can upgrade it as and when the money is available so no real bad points, just not enough money!
