|
| 9/23/2010 2:40:16 PM | There are various operating problems that have recently become issues. Word/Outlook would not load properly - a registry problem - and at a later time I could not print anything. Although I have corrected these problems, I am concerned about the operating system's health. |
|
| 10/14/2010 11:58:56 AM | After trying Dell OptiPlex GX270 for a few months, I'm extremely glad to have upgraded to GX280 because GX270 had a Celeron processor, despite their claim. Of course, there is always room for improvement. |

|
| 3/11/2011 2:18:49 PM | The browser takes a long time to boots up. The process performance is frequently at 100% in task manager (XP) and sometimes it can't load up internet sites. |
|
| 3/11/2011 1:13:27 PM | It serves my purpose |
|
| 2/23/2011 3:21:39 PM | I've only had it for 30 minutes, it's new. |
|
| 2/19/2011 7:55:11 AM | It is a good amchine, but is running very slow |
|

|
| 8/12/2011 10:55:38 AM | Until just lately it has been running OK.... |
|
| 5/4/2011 10:06:40 AM | I have simply had a series of problems which have required an IT person to come and do a "fix" so that the computer is useable. This has been expensive and frustrating. |
|
| 4/23/2011 12:53:10 AM | Is a refurbished computer |
|
| 5/13/2011 2:44:41 PM | Only sometimes is the computer slow. I schose satisfied before i have had an opportunity to try it out after you have done whatever it is you did |
|
| 3/28/2011 1:54:37 AM | Its older but it does the job and I have never had problems with it. |
|
| 9/19/2014 3:22:07 PM | ok for now |

|
| 1/16/2015 3:03:15 PM | I haven't checked it out after fix. |
|
| 11/5/2014 10:03:44 AM | over the years the speed of the computer has noticibly decressed, but I believe it is probably due to my internet provider |
|
| 3/15/2015 7:52:46 PM | Can't remove safesearch/yahoo search engiine |
|
| 4/29/2015 5:48:50 PM | have not used this program yet. |

|
| 3/9/2015 6:41:33 PM | Satisfied in general but disappointed that it cannot be upgraded more. Has slowed way down over the years. |
|
| 2/1/2016 11:02:38 AM | Has been a good work horse |
|
| 2/28/2016 5:10:32 PM | old but containts several hard drive points bit slow and laggy but but does whats needed |
|
| 12/13/2015 9:51:42 PM | This is an older computer which my 9-year-old son uses to browse the internet for kid stuff; I'm sure he's picked up various kinds of bugs in the process; hence,it's extremely slow. |
|
| 3/12/2013 12:06:45 AM | I think it can be alot faster. |
|
| 5/16/2013 10:53:08 PM | I have just scanned and fixed and do not know the actual working rrsults so at this point I cannot give a rave review. Ask me again in a week or two |

| 8/1/2011 1:26:25 AM | When I tried to clone my HD (in case it crashes), I get the following message: An error occurred while creating a clone of your computer, because your computer disc has errors. Window error: 0x57 Other than this, my computer was functioning perfectly as I de-frag and clean old files regularly. Microsoft was not able to fix it so I downloaded PC Health Advisor and they automatically gave me XoftSpySE . After that my computer was almost useless. I seem to have lost all of my .exe files so I went to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm for Windows® XP File Association Fixes.
