Now sure the system may be faster then what you could get at Dell. You probably should way the 2 options out. Dell makes a great computer for what they are. Not very upgradable but it may come with a software bundle. Not sure but they used to give windows Office awhile back. You may not need any software as such because you may already have it. Something to think about if you need software and Dell still offers it for free.

Don't worry about virus ext.. software you can get all that for free Avast or AVG .
Well I been on this for a while now time to take a break.
