Pretty good machine - we use it for graphics work and it handles everything well. Plenty of expansion space for additional drives. quality build with excellent case. Hard to fault it really. we added a high end graphic card ( at £350) and it became a dream machine. Renders video and Adobe Dreanweaver, Photoshop and Illustrator with ease. My colleague swears by it and not at it. Wish I could say the same about my Dell laptop. There are some other good workstations out there but I would stick with HP. The workstation quality that was so apparent with the Compaq brand has not disappeared with the HP takeover. This machine will run and run - expect no less that 3 years usable life from this. When it eventually does give out don't throw away the case. It's almost worth the purchase price itself:o)
