...as it is Black as opposed to the Silver fronted case.
What is predominant at the front of the case is the massive ventillation slots. Good ventillation means great cooling. It also contrasts to the tower DC7700 with smoothed corners as opposed to the angular and sharp design of the tower.
Due to its height, the expansion of this PC is limited. The PCI and AGP sockets inside the case are fiddly to access and also not full size. Hence the name small form factor. Therefore your standard PCI network cards, sound cards,etc will not fit this PC. This means that you will need special cards to expand this PC.
Saying this, you should not neet to expand it for some time. This PC comes with 1Gigabyte of ram installed, a 160Gb hard drive and a 2.13Ghz Intel Core2 Due processor that is more than enough performance for all but the highest level office staff...

DC7700 - Cheap and Cheerful
Review of HP CompaqBusinessDesktopdc7700 - Core2DuoE64002.13GHz by

Advantages Plenty of USBs, runs basic applications. Disadvantages Lacks the power for today's games.
...In relation to the price of this PC, this is a good product to purchase if you want reasonable performance, at a minimal cost. Not the fastest PC in the world, but functional, and will meet office-based needs. A major plus is the large amount of USB slots.
The 2.1 processor, along with the 1GB RAM gives this PC enough power for your word-processing, spreadsheeting, and the like, but may struggle if gaming is your main concern, as the 256MB integrated Intel chip is meant to only meet standard graphical applications. If you're more into your solitare than your Call of Duty, though, then you shouldn't have many problems. In cases of file storage, your modestly-sized 160GB S-ATA hard disk has plenty of room for music and files.
When looking at HP customer service, compared to other manufacturers, they are quite reliable. Most drivers...

Advantages Fast quick reliable, functional and cheap Disadvantages preinstalled software can cause set up headaches.
.... There are also 6 USB sockets as well as 1 Parallel port for older style printer connections, 1 serial port for specific devices (we use ours for connection to our door entry system) as well as the older style PS/2 keyboard and mouse connections. There are 4 expansion slots at the bottom of the case for PCI and AGP style cards for sound and graphic type devices should you need them.
Inside the Case there is 1 Gig of RAM pre installed to carry out all of the memory hungry applications that modern business needs. This can be expanded with the other 3 expansion slots to 4Gig! while the brains of the box, the processor, delivers 2.4Ghz Pentium Core2Duo technology. This comes in the E6400 version that was being used up until August. The newer PCs comes with E6600 technology but you are unlikely to notice any performance difference.
Sound is somehow...
