    If you want to game, just build your own computer.
    If you want to save money, just build your own computer.

    Dell's desktops aren't bad, but they aren't priced that great. Unless you need it in a hurry, or just really don't want to build one, dell's aren't too terrible. I'm on a dell right now.

    well to a point, sometimes dell can just be plan cheaper for the dirt cheap bare bones computers, especially when it comes with a monitor

    Yes, but if he is looking for the dell forums i am expecting him to be looking for a more powerful configurations.

    Edit: not to mention he asked if they are future proof and such ;)
