General Comments
I chose the P4 ht (not dual core) system with 19" lcd monitor and double memory. I upgraded the standard video card and opted for a DVD writer rather than combo drive plus I added a firewire card and wireless keyboard and mouse. It was delivered within 48 hours and the instructions for building the system were comprehensive (although I have done it before a couple of times). I have had no problems with the system whatsoever and would definitely buy from Dell in the future. It is quiet, quick and reliable and fits my needs perfectly (I use Word, Excel and the kids play their games on it).

The PC will have a free PCI slot on the motherboard (you will see some at the bottom of the board when you open up the case). You can buy a PCI Firewire card for pretty cheap (over here, I paid around £20, so id guess around $25) which all you have to do is slot in firmly and screw in at the edge. The card I got had four Firewire sockets and I don't think it even needed drivers installing.

We needn't have worried though - with the Dimension 9150, Dell has put together a system that would be impressive even if it cost a couple of hundred pounds more.

Dear Riker,
I am wanting to upgrade my 9150 (which I love as well) by adding Firewire capability once I buy a new camcorder. I thought I had already ordered Firewire when I first bought the system in November 2005 but I just realized I didn't. I haven't attempted to upgrade yet even though it seems like it should be a breeze, but I'm looking for guidance on whether or not I can do that with the Dimension 9150 and if so, what is the best route to take? I appreciate your thoughts.
