 After several weeks of deliberation, investigation, and

 Though price comparisons between the two chosen
vendors (the total price of Dell products and service
($1,081,767) to the total price of HP products and service
($1,139,824), Dell is the more affordable alternative, but the
3-years annual service from HP, in the long-term, would
pay for itself.
