after sales service

can you be more specific? are we talking about onsite service? phone line support? what? just curious...

DELL is fine, but HP is also pretty good... and tends to be lower cost if you look at their reman products..

questions..

what trading software are you using?
what trading timeframe are you? intra/swing?
Are you back testing, and if so what platform?
Are you trading options? equities? futures?

basically, a monkey can spew out part numbers from dell or hp site.... but only by understanding your requirements is that you will get a valid response... (with value add)...
