The Intel Core Ultra 5 235 is a 14-core desktop processor. Compared with a four-core i3, there are far more cores to go round, which shows when a browser, email, a video call, file sync and business applications all run at the same time. For developers, it means faster code compilation and running several containers or virtual machines side by side. In a desktop, the processor does not have to hold back to save battery.
Memory is 8 GB of DDR5, fitted as a single module. DDR5 is the newer desktop memory standard, with more bandwidth than the previous generation. Ubuntu usually needs less memory than Windows, so 8 GB is comfortable for office work and browsing; for memory-hungry development work, adding memory is worth considering. The 512 GB SSD starts the system and programs quickly and holds applications and projects.
The QCS1250 is a Dell Pro model in the Slim chassis. The slim desktop case is noticeably smaller than a regular tower and fits next to the monitor, on a shelf or under the desk, leaving room for papers and a second screen. The black finish matches office furniture. The picture comes from the Intel graphics integrated in the processor, designed for office work, presentations and video playback.
The computer ships with Ubuntu, a widely used Linux distribution that needs no Windows licence. Ubuntu is popular with developers and also suits network and server tasks, kiosks and office work with LibreOffice. The IT department can deploy its own system image on it. No keyboard is included, so the peripherals you already own stay in use.
Software developers and system administrators who work in Linux and need a multi-core processor; engineers and analysts whose tools load several cores at once; companies equipping technical workstations with identical compact computers; and IT departments that use their own system image and existing keyboards.

No keyboard is included. The manufacturer does not specify a mouse, so plan on using your own peripherals.
The manufacturer does not specify a wireless network card or Bluetooth. If a wireless connection is essential, check this before ordering.
The manufacturer does not specify the number or type of video outputs. Intel integrated graphics generally supports several screens, but check the exact port set in advance.
One 8 GB DDR5 module is installed. The manufacturer does not specify the number of free slots; see the Dell technical manual for exact upgrade options.
The manufacturer does not list a discrete graphics card; the picture comes from Intel integrated graphics. That is fine for office work and video, but it is not meant for demanding games.
