I agree with this very much. I've owned two workstations from Dell. We still have a Precision 410 that we bought 7 years ago. Not exactly a render box anymore, but it runs great for office stuff, photos, light CAD work, etc. My wife works from home and it's still her main machine.

The case fan just started doing a little squeaky thing, though. Cheap fix. That's pretty good for a system that has been on far more than it's been off these last 7 years.

Yep, my household primary machine is a 400SC.  It runs 24/7, is always busy, serves media to the house, has been up for 3 years straight without a single hardware problem.  There are entire forums dedicated to the low end Dell servers as home workhorses.
