Hello!

I'm in need of a help. First of all, I have to buy a new computer to a company which deals with all kinds of a printing solutions. http://www.hord.ee <--company homepage

Below is the optimal computer requirements. What should i change? The computer will be only to produce a fulltime service to the printer.

First of all, should I buy a Windows Server for that or you guys think I can handle it with minimal memory and services running in XP Pro ?

Secondly, which is the best and a very fast Intel CPU? I know that Xeon should be the best for a server solutions?

 

Can you explain this?? I can't imagine why you would need a dedicated computer for your printer....

Unless of course, it only has a parallel or USB interface, which would have to be connected. In which case, I don't understand why such a killer computer is needed.

 

It has a to be connected all the time. The printer is the machine which will produce money to this company. It has some kind of a USB key.

And it's not a usual printer. It's like 3 meter long and 1 meter width..
