Help me with OFFICE computers

[mfenn]

The computers will be for such basic use that in the worst case I can swap out for any computer and get them up and running in minutes as everything is on the cloud. Nothing local will be happening on the PCs that will require major work to swap out a new computer.

It may seem that way now, but I can tell you that that is NEVER the case. You will run into random frustrating problems that arise from having a mismash of hardware. This is a voice of experience telling you to not cheap out in the beginning.

Id listen to that experience

I have a different opinion. I run a small office where the computers are mostly expendable. If a computer goes down, it takes a day or so to buy a new one and get the person back up and running. This is better turn around time than a warranty would be and the computers are cheap enough that this isn't a significant problem. I can fix the machine on my own time and then use it someplace else or sell it. Just about any computer now days has two monitor outputs so I'm not sure why you're finding this a problem. Good computers can be found for the $300 - $400 range from Dell, HP, Gateway, Asus, etc...
