For any PC exclusive gamers out there feeling neglected by an abundance of console news, have no fear, [H] Consumer swoops in with a review of Dell's XPS 700 gaming machine to bring back some focus on the trusty mouse and keyboard. Favorable remarks of the rig include several 8s, 9s, and 10s as the assessment concludes: "While neither the strongest gamer nor fastest horse in the stable, the XPS 700 provides remarkably solid performance and enjoyable gaming in a package that's sure to turn heads. Although we have concerns about how the 7900 GS's will fare with the next generation of games, they're more than adequate to handle the current needs of today's gamers."
Should be interesting to see how Dell's Alienware purchase and HP's recent Voodoo PC purchase affect the race to become the number one PC manufacturer in the world. More interesting, however, is to see said manufacturers laying down big money on gaming to secure that goal.
