Table 4 UWF Student Hardware Recommendations Windows PC 2006 - 2007
Minimum Specifications for Windows-Based Student Desktops Processor Memory (RAM) Hard Drive CD drive Removable Media Networking
Recommendation Intel® Pentium 4 2.8GHz, Intel® Celeron 2.53GHz 1 Gigabyte (1Gb/1024Mb) 60 Gigabytes (Gb) CD-R/W & DVD (2 separate drives or 1 combination drive) USB Memory Stick/Pen Drive Integrated 10/100 Ethernet and/or 802.11b or 802.11g wireless
Monitor Operating System
15" LCD Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2
Warranty
3 years with Next Business Day (NBD).¹
Additional Information 2.53GHz or faster is sufficient for all common programs. 1GB of memory is sufficient for Windows XP and common applications. Note: Future operating systems may require additional resources. Plenty of storage space for Windows XP and personal files CD-R/W for backing up data and DVD for installing newer educational programs. USB drives hold more information than disks and are much more durable; CD-R/RW also replaces disks. Ethernet for high speed access in most residence halls and many offcampus high-speed services, wireless for other residence halls (Southside Village) and general use elsewhere on campus. Lighter than CRTs and uses less space. Windows Home Edition is fine but Professional will offer more for experienced users. Complete Care is recommended for accidental damage repair.²
Minimum Specifications for Windows-Based Student Laptops Recommendation Processor Intel® Pentium M 1.8GHz Memory (RAM)
1 Gigabyte (1Gb/1024Mb)
Hard Drive CD drive
60 Gigabytes (GB)
Removable Media Networking
24x CD-RW/DVD USB Memory Stick/Pen Drive Integrated 10/100 Ethernet and 802.11b or 802.11g wireless
Operating System
Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2
Warranty
3 years with Next Business Day (NBD).¹
Additional Information 1.8 GHz or faster Pentium M is sufficient for all common programs. Pentium M also conserves battery power, generates less heat, and offers superior performance. 1GB of memory is sufficient for Windows XP and common applications. Note: Future operating systems may require additional resources. Plenty of storage space for Windows XP and personal files CD-R/W for backing up data and DVD for installing newer educational programs. USB drives hold more information than disks and are much more durable; CD-R/RW also replaces floppy disks. Ethernet for high speed access in most residence halls and many offcampus high-speed services, wireless for other residence halls (Southside Village) and general use elsewhere on campus. Windows Home Edition is fine but Professional will offer more for experienced users. Complete Care is recommended for accidental damage.²
¹ Next Business day offers repair by a Dell Certified Technician the next day. This is for Dell systems ² Complete Care offers repair of accidentally damaged parts. This is for Dell systems - Students can take advantage of University discounts from the "Buy a Computer" website on the Argus - Services tab.
