I need to buy a new computer. The only times when speed ends up mattering is when I use STATA and merge very large datasets, use GLAMM, or use mfx. I was looking at the Dell Precision Workstation, and I saw a very large set of options in terms of processors, hard drives, and so on, and I have no idea what options matter given the tasks that I listed above and which do not. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks. Richard
