Not sure what the 'current' HP home boxes are like these days...but I got a pavilion 8760c a while back. Had to replace the cruddy winModem and fake sound card with a USR and an SBLive. Added another HD, installed Linux on that; now I can dual boot twixt Linux and 'Doze (for gaming). Not really such a bad box.
It may be the case the windows sysadmins' bosses have lower IQ that *nix sysadmins' bosses. It's suprising how a PHB can make a sysadmin run in circles over stuff like budgets and special click-click projects, etc., all of which detract from quality admin time.
