Idontwantspam Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 (edited) A few moments ago I saw Dell's new XPS one advertised on their site. It had been "leaked" before, but unless I'm clueless, this is the first it's been for sale. I must say, it looks sweeeeeeet. I wish I had enough money for one. It's basically a whole computer (and a pretty powerful one at that) all in one slim, pretty case, monitor built in. AWESOME! For a dell, it's not very customizable when you buy, but hey, the defaults aren't bad, and it looks amazing. Edited November 20, 2007 by puntoMX Spam...

PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Gateway has one of these too. I like the looks of theirs better though (but the gateway seems to be available in with modem and without modem being the only options)http://www.gateway.com/programs/one/index.phphttp://www.gateway.com/systems/product/529667523.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted November 20, 2007 Author Share Posted November 20, 2007 You like which one better?You don't make that clear. I personally like dells better than gateways over all. Just my bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I prefer gateways design over dells - the gateway has 1 cord going to the back of it and nojacks clustered at the back -all the standard motherboard type connectors are on the power brickplaus the gateway looks like its all 1 piece and the dell looks like a monitor on a stand with speakers attached. plus it has a gimpy keyboard (the touchpad is a nice touch but i wanna numpad)oh and i found the page that has the different versionshttp://www.gateway.com/programs/one/compare.php (Too bad they teamed up with Best Lie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Gateway uses laptop parts inside so there design can be made a lot slimmer then the Dells.Dell uses "normal" PC parts but still, there will be not much you can do when swapping out parts, screen, PSU and mobo are not standard.I would buy neither by the way...

nmX.Memnoch Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 the gateway has 1 cord going to the back of itYou can do the same thing with the Dell if you use a wireless network (provided you also use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, such as the ones that come with it). Given that scenario you only have the power cord going into the back of it.I would buy neither by the way...I wouldn't either (for me), but there's a lot of LAN party goers that will though. The screen is bigger than what's available with laptops.I would, however, love to have these sitting on our desks at work. So much less clutter.And yeah, Gateway's looks like nothing more than a laptop without a hinge/lid. I like the Dell design much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I wouldn't either (for me), but there's a lot of LAN party goers that will though.I have DJs as customers here for example; we mount the LCD screen to the right side of the computer. At the back of the computer we mount 2 bars to protect the connectors from breaking/bending. I’m always worried that these All-in-one systems get overheated. Laptops for example are no-go for these DJs. I believe that for LAN party freaks it will be the same... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroshift Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I would buy neither by the way...Ditto... I`m having nightmares just when thinking about a burnt mobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 Well, truth to be told, if I had enough money for one I probably wouldn't buy one either. But it does look pretty cool. I guess I would be worried about replacing/upgrading, since it's such a non-conventional design. PuntoMX, why does it say you edited my post for spam? What spam?

puntoMX Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Well, in this case it was the sales text of Dell, like a big billboard.I replaced it with proper images from the same site . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idontwantspam Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 OK, that's fine. I just used that image 'cause it was the first I came to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
