GUARD AS-WIRE 3156723 - Caterpillar

MachinesThe following recommendation is based on communications with numerous areas responsible for dealer PC products. The recommendation is not the minimum required, but a target level of technology with which the majority of software solutions delivered by Caterpillar can operate. There are software solutions available that may require additional compatibility issues to be considered (i.e. OS/2). If you have any questions to a particular software solution, please reference the product information sheet for the specific software.
The following are recommended configurations for most types of applications taking into consideration performance and price relationships. In general, faster processors, more RAM, faster CD-ROM drives, faster modems, larger screens and larger hard disk drives add cost, but also extend the useful life of the computer.
While Caterpillar continues to strive for the highest quality software solutions, it is impossible for our developers to test every solution on the limitless combinations of hardware available. It is for this reason that Caterpillar strongly recommends that dealers purchase either IBM or Hewlett Packard products.
Before making purchases or if you have any questions regarding this recommendation, please contact the DCSG (Dealer Channel Systems Group) Help Desk at (309) 675-4000 or E-mail DCSGHELP DCSG1 for the most current recommendations.
