Most of the desktops at the office (MSFT) are Dell and 3 of the 4 at home are Dells as well. The 4th is a home built machine that looks like a Transformer for my 6 year old.
I went to the techbargains web site, looked through some of that, also they had a Best Buy link/specials. Also Best Buy listed a local weekly sale in my area. So I picked up an emachine.

Quite a difference from my old system. Now I can view my chess/games progams in 3D, has some decent pre-loaded software, is fast compared to my old system, and the best has thus far accepted my older software, including 95 Publisher etc., The operating system is XP.

A nice feature in that it has a McAfee that picked up an Adware/Syware attempt when I tried to install one of my older back-up drives. It called it a "PUP." Took care of the Spyware attempt, and the zip drive works excellent.

Has CD and DVD also. 30 day back guarantee, with 3yr. option, and has a Gateway warranty also (which I have yet to look over)

Asked all kinds of questions, and am happy so far.
