13 Years of Dell Getting Worse
We dug a Dell Vostro 400 out from a closet to see if Dell had improved or regressed in its use of proprietary parts. This ~2008 machine embarrasses Dell's modern prebuilts, sadly.

If you want to see the modern competition for the Dell Vostro 400, we have an entire playlist of prebuilt system reviews here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsuVSmND84QuM2HKzG7ipbIbE_R5EnCLM
We compared the Vostro 400 to the Dell G5 5000, a system so bad that it needed two videos. Part one is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DMg6hUudHE
The Dell G5 5000 was an eye-opening experience earlier this year, showing us a PC that looked like it was built in... any previous decade, except in 2021 and for $900. The biggest downside of the system, much like other large OEM pre-built gaming computers (and computers in general), was the use of basically disposable and proprietary parts.
