im not a fan of dell's products but because your last system was a dell im assuming that you already have that monitor, but if you don't dont do it. for the same amount you can get 19in wide screen view sonic, or asus. but thats just my 2 cents. not a huge fan of the case but thats because i don't like doors. i like the HDD drive bays. but its going to be very hard to run your cables neatly because there is no way to come up from behind the mobo tray. but it should be about what makes you happy.
