How upgradeable are dells in general?

THey are pretty good but I would suggest that you do try to upgrade it, theya are relatively cramped together and once you open them teh chances that you fit it all back properly are very remote. You may accidently leave a wire too near the fan or something and may cause your computer to fry up, plus they wont even touch it if the warranty seal is broken.

How upgradeable are dells in general?
dell would be better off welding thier cases shut. dells are generally adequate for most computing, though. the lack of flexibility is the only problem. just for the love of god don't buy a gateway, compaq, hp, or sony...
