if not DELL, then what?

Heya,

I've had very few problems with the 50 or so of these that I have either bought or bought for clients from PC Connection. They've been known as the PC 300, Netvista, or ThinkCentre desktops. They changed the name a few times, but they're good. Barnes & Noble uses them for kiosk and Point of Sale I still think.

You will pay more, but these machines running NT 4, 2000, or XP Pro are stable. Except for the iteration of the PC300 series where they used VIA chipsets, these things are rocks, especially with Intel chipsets.

They're recommended because you pay less over time due to not having to service them as much.

However, I have donated 15 of them, still stable as anything.
