I've been asked by few people about which desktop to buy. They are technical enough to swap components, but definitely don't have time to troubleshoot. They have more important things to do. So, I said any brand, new or refurbished, except HP.
Actually at my previous job we started getting HP EliteDesk 800 tower machines and they were actually surprisingly nice little machines. Well at least 2 years ago they were. They were certainly better made than the Lenovo ThinkCentres we had been getting. I was not impressed by those at all. At my current job I have a thinkpad (very nice of course) and some Dell business desktop (seems to work just fine and no issues with it although I think the HP was a bit nicer perhaps). Anything consumer targeted from HP though is best avoided.
Things may have changed, and HP may be good now. Which brand would you recommend for desktop computer for business people?
