Dimension is their home line, I think.  I really don't know what the 
difference is
between Optiplex and Dimension, but I think there may be a different 
grade of
parts that went into them.  If you run this computer 24/7, that may be 
significant.
If you run it only when you are using the machine tool or whatever, then I
suspect it will make much less difference.  The jitter numbers sound real
good!
