Sorry for the newb question.
I am buying these computers for work and they will be doing statistical analyses, DNA stuff, word processing, microsoft access, surfing porn etc.
and wanted some outside advice on the specs. These will have to last a few years.
I went for dual core, what I consider a lot of ram, and I need the archaic disk drives. Anything I am missing.
BTW. I need to order these ASAP since the money disappears quick.
