..and that's your opinion, as is mine that I didn't. HP's make solid machines and I'm much happier with them than the Dells.

These are work machines, not "email readers", and no it's not 10X needed for office work. They are investments to be used in the office for the next several years.

And if you paid more than $1000, and you obviously did, for that system you wasted company money.

Dell Opti 755

Vista Business

E6550

250GB HD (for whatever freaking reason)

$724 ($699 if we go to a reasonable 80 GB HD)

Added 4GB PC8000 Ram $90

Added DVD Burner $25

Video card was hard to match: $150

Floppy $8

So a quad monitor, 10x what's needed for office work I spent $997 including the OS. Still waiting for why it cost over a grand for an office PC.
