On OEM builds like desktops installing a 2nd dimm is easy unlike laptops, premium ones especially with IGP and single channel is far far far worse.
Stop accepting Intel bribe mr.Dell.
If that system had a MSRP of say < $700 I might be saying that at least appropriate. Just when the desktop market has a little blip into get better the OEM's think it's time to gouge like everyone else has... Sad.
