I think you missed my point. If workstation A fails, call Dell and
have another one overnighted, or call Dell today and order a second
workstation to have as a backup or act as a secondary workstation.

Their Vostros line is cheap (in appearance, components and price),
but is functional, performs well and did I say cheap already, so
you can get 2 for the price of 1 highly redundant system.
