    The Good: Space-saving slim tower case offers room for future expansion; decent light-duty performance.

    The Bad: Limited connectivity options.

    The Bottom Line: With similar results as its ancestors, the Dell Inspiron 545s-1476N registers decent benchmarks and offers respectable upgradability, but we hesitate to recommend it over the older Gateway SX2800-01 that leaves Dell in the dust in regards to both performance and features.
