HP machines have had a solid reputation for years from what I can tell - I will go for a min of 2GB RAM aswell. > I also use the Video out option so that I can attach an LCD as an additional > monitor which REALLY helps! I will probably do the same and get myself a large LCD at home to replace the Viewsonic 17" I bought in 1997 and am still using - I think I've turned it off maybe 20 times in those 10 years - it's still going strong. It has been well worth the R3200 I spent way back then. > The biggest bottleneck has been the harddrive speed. Thanks for the tip. Heinz implies harddrive speed at a potential bottleneck aswell. Will definitely watch out for this. Cheers, Bruce --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CTJUG Forum" group.
