Dell is a well know company and the service they provide is tremendous. I am using this model since years and its working so smooth.
The beet part is that dell cover broken hardware in thier warranty period. Its a dos bases lapi you can put any window you wish to it will work fine I have use from xp to linex and there is not a single pblm in it. Once or twife I have called for some repair and they were superfast and ofcourse they give door service soo you dont have to go anywhere.
