Notes
1.  DT = Desktop chassis. This chassis does not allow for the addition of extra drives. A Minitower option is available for those who will need more expandability.

2.  The high end desktop option's processor, the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400, 2.66 GHz, is faster than the standard desktop option's processor, the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, 3.0 GHz, as the Core 2 Quad processors are faster than the Core 2 Duo processors.

3.  Lead times may vary, depending on availability from supplier, workloads, special projects, etc. Please check with us at time of order for current lead times.

4.  When choosing a Windows laptop, for an additional cost, you may request a port replicator. In addition, a lighter-weight laptop option is also available. Please check with us for the current options.
