*choice of tower or desktop, floor or desk*


      Desktops are nice if you work on internals a lot - I wish I had
a suntac 286 in a desktop case just for diagnostic work. right now I
have a minitower on the desktop next to the printer - I have two
desks side by side so I have enough room. The little tower would work
on one desk with monitor if the desk was wide/deep enough for you to
be comfortable.

     Floor mounted towers are a deadly peril for hard disks. If I
had a dollar for every hard drive I've un-fucked that came out of 
a tower on the floor, I'd take you out for a nice dinner. The thing
with being on the floor is that the machine gets kicked or rammed
with a chair leg at least once a day - not good for data integrity.
