Now, first, some data on the PC:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU@2.50 GHz

Ram: 6 GB (2 * 2 + 2 * 1)

OS: Win 7 Professional (64-bit)

HDD: 1 TB

Video Card: Nividia GeForce GT 220

And it was sold with  a 23 “HD Flat Screen.

I had bought  the PC on 2nd January and then I had to  wait and wait. Then I got an email with the expected delivery date, which was the 11th February. But then it went very quickly .. I have looked again at 26.1 on the status page, and I could read: “product is shipped” and a link to the package delivery service and as the delivery date was specified 28.1.

On Thursday I had to wait again  …for  the UPS car …. and he didn’t arrived…. finally  17 clock he was outside the front door. I was pleased as a Cheshire Cat:)

Simba was also enthusiastic: As soon as the packet  of the PC was open, he sat in there and wanted to make himself comfortable. I like him to get away and then set up the PC. Then he was allowed back into his box, which of course was not so great.

And then I pressed the start button and my computer booted and I  tested my PC. The PC is ultra quiet, you barely hear it in operation, the large screen is also great. I’m really excited, so much space on the screen.

Dell offers , at the top of the screen a so  called a docking station. This menu bar  can be divided into different categories, e.g. Office, Games, Internet, etc.

In this you can then drag the different programs and run it from there. This saves space on the desktop.

With the power I’m super happy. Now I can return to  SETI @ home to run without disturbing it.

With the DVD drive but I had some problems. At Dell, it has a shutter in front of the DVD drive and the drive itself, there is no “Open” button. I can even open the drive of a computer from, but what do I do if I have time to make a System Restore? But then I have looked closer the drive again, right from the orifice is a small bar, and I pressed it and hey presto the drive was open:)
