Make beautiful & innovative "all-in-one" style computers

Desktops submitted by jpaulynice 08/08/07 **PARTIALLY IMPLEMENTED**

Make INNOVATIVE and beautiful all-in-one computer designs. Or at least with that look and feel like that.

The reason that Microsfot makes so much money is because their OS is shipped with new computers. The reason everyone in the PC industry (Dell, HP) was so excited for Vista was because they knew that people would hear a new OS was out and would buy new computers.

Most people don't mess with the guts of a computer or upgrade components. Mostly moders and gamers. Making all-in-one models fit with the market; they give us space and something nice to look at.

The old Gateway 610XL media center computer was AMAZING!!! And to date, is the best computer I've ever used or seen. People were always impressed. And it recieved EXCELLENT reviews from everyone who reviewed it; I never read a bad review.

The computer was not created by Gateway; they only shipped it. The design was created in conjunction with Intel.

My recommendation is to create a better version that would kick the crap out of an Apple iMac. I get so jealous and mad when I see them innovate and you guys ship gray boxes??!!

We live in an age of Mach 5 Stealth jets and DNA sequencing! Please start acting like it.

Proposed Features:

* Subwoofer (This is was big deal; it delivered excellent sound)
* TV tuner (optional)
* 1GB (standard)
* Wireless networking standard (this was also a big deal)
* Built-in Webcamera
* DVD burner (standard)
* Wireless Keyboard and Mouse (preferrably standard; this made a difference and added a nice touch)
* Standard Media card reader
* Widescreen monitor
* Hardware compatiable with Linux
* Remote control
* Thin, light and sexy

Example of great all-in-one

New Colors for XPS 710

Inspiron products, XPS products submitted by melvintomas 07/20/07

When the XPS first came out, I remembered it had a nice dark blue color and it wasn't as glossy(i.e didn't pick up as much fingerprints) as the new 710s and 720s. Since Dell recently brought out new colors for inspirons, it would be really nice to get more than two colors for the XPS instead of the boring silver color that Dell has been advertising on catalogs.

Now You Choose – Concept 1

Gaming, XPS products submitted by dell_admin1 04/25/07


Participate in the product design process! Dell is using IdeaStorm to decide between two new product design concepts. Vote on your favorite and weigh in to tell us what you think.



When we unveiled the XPS 710 H2C at CES this year, we also uncovered it. There were a limited number of systems sprinkled throughout the show floor that had a clear side panel allowing easy viewing of the patent-pending two-stage H2C liquid cooling system.



Since then, more than a few people have suggested we offer a “panel with a view” as an option for our XPS 710 line. Now we need you to vote for one of these two options and, most importantly, share some reasons why you like it.




This “Now You Choose” vote campaign will be open from Wednesday, April 25 to Friday, May 11. The design that gets the most votes will be featured in a future generation of XPS gaming desktops.

Better looking cases

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Desktops and Laptops submitted by pringles 05/10/07

I think Dell should offer more variety for their case designs.

The XPS cases are quite an improvement over the standard case design. Yet there still isn't much choice. Dell now owns Alienware, they should take their lead. Be able to change the color of the case, add fans, add LEDs, stuff like that. Also have cases that have transparent sides to see the hardware.

Make Dell look good. 2 Comments »

Make color of the XPS cases optional for the customer.

Accessories (Keyboards, etc.), Sales Strategies, XPS products submitted by maverick4ever 08/01/07

I think it would be a good move of Dell to give the customer the option of choosing the color of his/her PC's color. Personally, I don't care for the current red and silver case of the XPS 710, but I would like to have the 1kilowatt powersupply and other advantages. Meanwhile it seems like at this moment the black XPS case, which I preferred a lot more, isn't even being offered. Like with Alienware, give the customers options with the color of their PC's cases. 5 Comments »
