I buy all of the technology for the company (just bought 5 new laptops for field techs) and I stick with Dells because I can get a serial port for our telemetry connections and downgrade to XP.
I screwed up and ordered my desktop without downgrading to XP, so it has Vista. Not a major problem, but definitely a nuisance at times. Next month I get to buy a FLIR camera! This is going to be fun!
