Dell OptiPlex Micro desktops is our preferred choice for the majority of our users.

I prefer the Dell micro (square box) configuration with the monitor mount for it.
We're doing the same thing here, but we don't have the nifty monitor mounts for it.

As the title says - I'm looking to buy a few new desktop PCs for my office. What do you guys like?
In the past I've purchased with HP elitedesk units.
Past purchases were in the $800 range (computer/keyboard/mouse).Dual monitor connections is a requirement. Display port converting to VGA/DVI is fine.
Dell micro OptiPlex's mounted to the back of a monitor is very nice to support.

My go to now is the HP EliteDesk 800 Micro. You can monitor mount it or tuck it away. The HP EliteDesk 800 small form factor is some times less depending on what smart buys are running.

Dell, HP, Fujitsu, whatever you prefer.

We're a Dell shop here. So whatever their new model is at the time we purchase.

Have you ever bought Fujitsu? They always seem good by the specs and price.

I had a Fujitsu Lifebook laptop (500 mHz P2)... That little thing was a beast. I'd have no qualms about buying another.

Good to know.

Lots of them. Celsius (workstations), Esprimo (desktops), Primergy (servers) and all kinds of notebooks. Good quality, not any better or worse than HP or Dell.

We're a Dell shop and have a variety of Inspirons and Optiplexes.

Do you prefer Inspirions over Latitudes?

I wasn't clear. All laptops (except for 1) are Latitudes. The Inspirons are most of our old desktops. New desktops tend to be Optiplexes. If I were buying today, I might not even use Optiplexes, as these users really don't need a beefy machine.

Still have an Lifebook C6565 which still works, expect for the battery. P3 700

We have Lenovo laptops. I don't recommend Lenovo laptops. We're getting rid of all of the Lenovo laptops.

Are you trolling?

Thinkmate makes some nice hardware.

White box is a decent option.

I have to do Lenovo in the same region that he's in, they are the major supplier there.
