List Brand and Model if possible.

Thanks for voting.

For my office, we use Dell 600m and two Latitude D800 for our CAD designers.

I guess Dells took over the corporate America. The thing about the Dells is that they are cheap (affordable).

Comparing the specs, we bought two dells for price of 1 HP with almost same specs. crazy huh.

all Dell here, for now. Dell's failing support and crappier hardware are making us think otherwise.

We have mostly Dells in place now, used to be IBM's.

As for desktops, we're switching from Dell desktops to HP desktops. Mostly due to the fiasco with the GX270 line (EVERY 270 we ordered had to be repaired about 10K of them). Capacitors on the MB blew...

That is why we are looking for Dell alternatives. We had a MB totally die on our main Domain Controller. Not even a light or fan windup. We spent over $5,000 to upgrade our 24hr onsite repair for 4hr onsite repair and extended another 2 years for our 4 Dell servers.

Also a number of laptops with various bad hardware components needed to be replaced. Desktops have been solid though.

The HP's we had at our school seemed to die quite easily, that could be due to the fact that they had 3-6 different irresponsible teens on them every day Razz

How are they holding up thus far?
