You may not be very happy with the performance or resolution of that machine.

Yeah you are going to want at least 1680x1050. With this resolution you can 4 table with a bit of top/bottom overlap.

Why are you against Dell desktops? What else would you suggest? My next computer will be a desktop and would have gone with Dell as the laptop has run great.

I agree I love my Dell laptop, but if I were going desktop I would go with Cyberpower PC. Main reason is in a desktop I would be going with a gaming machine. Dell uses their own form factor for their cases, and use some of their own proprietary hardware...like their MB, so upgrading/replacing something like the MB could be an issue if you want to go with something other than Dells. Also for the price of the XPS i can get a better/cheaper machine than Dell. A friend of mine who builds his own comps bought a cyberpower recently because when he added up the parts, they were just a little over what he could've gotten them for. The neg with Cyberpower is their CS is horrible.
