How many have you tried? How many different runs. If it's only one or two
boxes this is not sufficient. I've tested over a dozen of the Dell
OptiPlex GX1's and not a single one has failed, some of them were built
nearly a year apart.
Though this is a good place to start to build another possible compatible
box to look for. I'd want to see at least two runs of machines and the
video cards and network support should also be at least two revs. This
implies you'd probably want to test 6-8 boxes to be reasonably sure of
listing them as 'compatible'.
I'll add it to my list of boxes to look for.
