Your question as stated doesn't really give one much to work on so we |
| 8 |
can't really answer your question. If you provide the hardware details |

that will go in the eventual machine, we can give you pointers. |

Dell, as is common with most system builders, have this annoying habit |
| 12 |
of calling completely different machines by the same model number. It's |
| 13 |
almost as if the model number tells you the shape and colour of the box |
| 14 |
and you can put inside whatever you like when you order.... |
