School Year Book Computers

Do any of you here have computers at school designated for your yearbooks? If so do you know the specs?

Thx.
 
Why do you really need to know? Any semi-modern PC with a decent res can do it. The biggest decision to make is what layout software you will use.
 
CPU speed doesn't really matter correct? Like an athlon XP 1600+ or better should suffice. Probably more ram and a faster HD are more important and a backup HD too?
I'm just asking because we might get new computers also for our yearbook and if we didn't then I could make some suggestions on what to upgrade 😉. That's why i'm asking aswedc (is your nick short for something or did you make that up spare the moment?).

Chances are your school will get p4's. I've yet to see an athlon in a school. Second, as aswedc stated, any pc relatively new will do just fine. Laying out a yearbook isn't exactly system-intensive.
