I am sitting in the library of my home looking at an old Dell until that is stored in one of my cabinets. It dates from ... no earlier than summer of 93, no later than the spring of 94, so somewhere in that time frame (say Nov 93 for a median) with a P75 processor, ?2 or 8? MB of RAM, 1gig harddrive, 3.5inch drive, and a 2x CD-ROM drive (all top of the line at the time if I so recall)

And written directly on the tower is: XPS.

Therefore, I don't think the 1996 date is accurate as the origin of the XPS line.

Research/correction is in order.

XPS M140 and Dimension E310 info at http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,123219,00.asp . Can somebody with a good handle on these matters please integrate into main article? Thanks -- 29 October 2005

I belive so far there are 5 Generations of XPS desktop, and you only listed 3. I have Gen 3 myself, but have seen the new one and it is Gen 5.
