I wondered about that - not seeing any Inspirons on the web site. Having used lots of Optiplexes and a bunch of Latitudes over the last 10 years and having good luck with them and seeing some minor issues with Dimensions and Inspirons in domain situations, I was trying to decide between the Vostro and a Latitude. There is less than $100 difference in cost between the two similarly configured machines. Probably a well spent $100 right up front and likely save more than that in problems and downtime over the life of the machine. As for docking stations, this company doesn't need that at all.
Thanks to all for the thoughts. I can always count on this list for accurate information.
