Business type PCs aren't always enough:

Many "business type" PCs are designed for client/server networks, have small hard drives and few multi-media features.

This may suit "office drones" working mostly on text based documents, in large organisations.

However, good quality "consumer type" PCs can be more suitable for people who do more varied tasks - especially in small companies.

For example, when a company lacks a specialist "art department" or the funds to commission outside help; it's useful to have a PC which can process digital photos, or even digital video etc.

Few traditional "business type" PCs can do this.
