CNET have published a review of the Dell Studio XPS 7100 gaming desktop. 'On the outside, the Studio XPS 7100 looks almost the same as the Intel-based Studio XPS 8000-series. The only difference comes down to the 7100's dark gray front panel, in contrast with the all-black 8000 series. Lighter shades notwithstanding, we still like Dell's midtower design, particularly the upswept media card reader and the USB-equipped device tray on the top of the case. A drop-down panel on the front is a bit clunky, especially as it only conceals an unoccupied 3.5-inch bay and a pair of USB ports. Otherwise, there's little for us to complain about on the exterior.'
