We like:
Dual-core Atom 330 CPU; cute design
We don't like:
Noisy; rubbish graphics
CNET UK judgement:
The x27D is, at the time of writing, the fastest nettop-style machine we've ever tested. Its dual-core Atom 330 CPU makes it a far more robust solution than PCs such as the Eee Box. It's a little too noisy for our liking, but it's affordable, attractive and definitely worthy of consideration

Not particularly exciting, but it's cheap and offers a relatively large display for a nettop

Despite some missing features, it's a decent all-rounder, and it looks good for a Dell desktop too
