Hello, Poser Community! I'm purchasing a new system primarily for Poser 5 and Pro Pack. I considered building my own system until a DAZ tech told me that component incompatibilities can cause problems with Poser 5. So..I decided to buy one instead. Which off-the-shelf system would any of you recommend, if any? I'm considering the following: HP Pavillion, Dell XPS or Dell Dimension 8300 or Gateway 700XL. I'm considering a system configured as follows: h 3.2GHz (HT) Pentium 4 h Microsoft(R) Windows(R) XP Home Edition OR Professional Edition? (Which do you think is best? I was actually leaning toward Windows 2000. I'm not sure about XP. Is that what you run Poser on? h 1 GB DDR / PC3200 (2 DIMM) RAM h 250 GB 7200 rpm Ultra DMA Hard Drive h 128MB DDR ATI Radeon 9800(R) w/ TV-out & DVI cap Does this sound inadequate, adequate or more than adequate or on a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate it? I really appreciate any feedback. I'm ready to get my Poser groove back on! :-) Help!! Thanks. Pam H 7261@ameritech.net
