Incoming Students
Information for incoming students regarding the recommended packages and how
to place an order is available on the Class
of 2012 Web site.
Academic Work
Before placing an order for a new computer, please check with your
department's computing support office. They can help you determine the
system that is best suited to your needs. For faculty and students who
want to use a Windows computer for general academic work, Computing Services
recommends the Dell OptiPlex or Dell
Latitude.
Administrative Users
Before placing an order for a new computer, please check with your
department's computing support person. Many administrative departments
have enrolled in the Hardware and Software Standards
Program. This program provides new Dell computers on a regular
basis. If your department is not a participant in the Standards Program,
your department's computing support office can assist you in determining the
appropriate computer to meet your needs. This program is not available
to faculty, students, or staff in academic departments.
For staff who want to use a Windows computer for general administrative
work, Computing Services recommends the Dell OptiPlex or
Dell Latitude. These recommendations are suitable for the
overwhelming majority of people at Dartmouth. However, your requirements may
vary depending on the nature of your work. If you need help determining the
appropriate computer that will meet all your needs, please contact the pre-sales
staff in Computer Sales
and Service or your department's
computing support office.
