If anybody out there in Orangeland knows something about computers and has a little time to peruse this- this morning i'd be very grateful. Chris and I are about to buy these discount computers from a place that sells brand new computers that were sent back for having the wrong serial #'s or something to that effect. It could be shady. Could be totally legit.
Even so I don't know the first thing about computers or what to look for in one. Here are the specs. Do they look good for office computers? We're not going to be playing WOW on them or anything of course - just appts., bookkeeping, stuff like that.
