Intro:
The Lenovo ThinkStation S10 6423 - Core 2 Duo E6850 3 GHz is a Core 2 Duo-based, high-end personal computer.Compared to other performance desktops on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $1,995.This system comes with 2 GB RAM, and a 250GB hard disk.
Noteworthy Features:
Has a nVidia Quadro FX 1700 graphics chip.Also, this desktop has a workstation CDS System type, which is considerably more favorable than some similarly priced desktops.Also, this machine's Core 2 Duo based processor is zippy enough to handle demanding applications, such as digital video.
Weaker Features:
None noted, given available product data.
Suitability:
Suited for those who want a powerful computer for multimedia or power-hungry applications.Also comes with advanced word processing software -- fine for most serious business or academic writers.However, preserve favorite home movies for future generations by saving them onto DVD with this computer's DVD recorder.This computer also has a CD writer, allowing you to compile your own audio CDs or video CDs.
Value:
Overall, this desktop's features seem a bit weak, even for its relatively inexpensive price.
Suggestions:
(1) If you plan to be playing the latest 3-D games, you may want to invest in a more powerful video card from NVidia or ATI, which are popular with the gaming community (requires an open AGP or PCIe slot).(2) For help in deciding if this is the right desktop for you, see CNET's buying guide for desktops.
