Bring back the Dell OptiPlex GX 280!

-50 points posted to OptiPlex products by hexstar 03/31/07

I think Dell should bring back the Dell OptiPlex GX 280 form factor. Why? You could open it from the back easily by pressing a button and splitting it open, then there were green tabs that you put on drives to easily slide them in and out to avoid dealing with screws, things were easily identified and it was very easy to add and replace hardware. There doesn't seem to be any form factor quite like the OptiPlex GX 280's and I greatly wish they'd continue to use that form factor. Anyone agree with me? :-)

Jun 15		 I personally have found the new chassis on the 620, 745 and 755 to be a vast improvement over the GX260/GX270/GX280 range. A single button releases the cover and all the commonly changed parts are indicated by blue tabs that show you what to remove. Which models are you comparing to the GX280?
