Small And Underpowered


I'm sitting here in a lab of 32 of these tiny things, and I can't stand them. My high school has the SX260s in every lab. Now because the CPU tower is the size of a dictionary, the administration is scared someone will steal the systems. As an after effect of that, we can not have a backpack in the lab. I know PCs keep getting smaller and smaller, but there is a point where they need to stop.

Verdict

Taking the small-footprint desktop PC to its logical extreme, Dell's OptiPlex SX260 is a study in compactness that should fit most offices, but doesn't ignore centralised management issues.

Typical price

£ 1294
