Thinking about replacing wife's computer so I thought I would give her mine and buy me a new one. I want a Dell that is at least or better than what I have got. I will have Dell build the tower only because everything else I have, monitors etc is less than a year old. I do not need huge hard drives as most everything I store is on usb drives. I do want SATA hard drives of at least 10,000 rpms. The older I get the more impatient I get so speed is important. It is used to run my business applications and communications for my towing service and real estate ventures. Being able to run several applications at a time is a necessity. I dabble in graphic designs. Photo's a big part of both businesses. And of course the primary function - the web.
