Business desktop PCs and workstations both offer desk-based solutions, but each is designed to serve a different function in your business. HP business desktop PCs offer dependable PCs for your business and support common business applications like e-mail and Internet access, Microsoft Office work, and even entry level professional 2D and 3D graphics.

HP workstations support processing and memory intensive technical applications such as MCAD, software development, video processing, and oil and gas applications. Workstations typically include professional graphics cards, are certified for specific technical applications, are capable of supporting dual processors and larger memory configurations, and support a wider range of operating systems including Windows XP Professional and Red Hat Linux.
