I'm on a Dell 8200 desktop. I have installed a 3rd party video card, 3rd party rdram, and a 3 party cdrw drive. The system has been on for weeks without a restart. I keep hearing that it’s hard to upgrade a Dell, but I've never had a problem with one that I've used or worked on. The only things that are hard to upgrade is the motherboard and power supply everything else is a breeze. The Dell is the first prebuilt system I have owned (I'm not counting the 486 Pac Bell) and I can't say a bad thing about it. I would recommend
a Dell. The only problem with them is they don't offer AMD and I do like picking out exactly what goes in it. So if you buy a prebuilt go with a Dell, but building one has its pluses. Oh yea if you get a Dell don’t forget to search the net for coupons. I found some pretty good ones when I bought mine.
