There is nothing wrong with Dell itself. Like everyone else says the customer service is pretty good. The reason I chose not to go with them is because by building your own you can get exactly what you want in it. If you are somewhat of a computer nerd you could get yourself a way better system for the money. If you have trouble figuring out how to turn the computer off/on, Dell is the way to go.
