Hi Hueyone, my sister's company has standardized on Dell purely for reasons of cost and time. At my startup, we've also standardized on Dell for the most part, and also have some HP and a Linux box of some sort.

I'm finding 32 bit too slow. And there are some other people in hightech that are cursing the slowness of 32 bit too, but many people don't. It really depends upon what you're doing. You should ask Elmer or Ten - they keep current on test results. The next machines we buy will probably be 64 bit.

I haven't had problems with either Dell or HP. Dell has a small business initiative and so a Dell SB person emailed me to make sure everything is AOK and just to let him know if I had any questions. He was in the USA.

At home, my Dell support came thru Malaysia - I had to get a bios update for a new printer and a very intelligent Malaysian person helped me out and fixed the issue. I found her quicker than some of the USA support I've received. For example, she didn't ask me to reinstall windows : ) After the phone call, I was thinking it would be nice if she worked here.

Regards,
Amy J
