Hello all,
We're implementing AC soon and are looking at purchasing a new computer house the AC db while keeping our current computers as the client computers. I've been reading the forum a lot and there are lots of mention of the Dell Optiplex. I noticed the Dell Vostros have almost identical technical specs (CPU, RAM, harddisk) and are less expensive. Dell advertises Optiplex as "good for networks" or something like that. Does anyone have experience with a recently purchased Vostro as the main AC computer? The info below are taken from the dell website - we're deciding between these 2.
