Computer/Software Hardware Recommendations<br />

impossible for our developers to test every solution on the limitless combinations of<br />

hardware available. It is for this reason that Caterpillar strongly recommends that<br />

dealers purchase IBM, Dell, or Hewlett Packard products. For best performance of<br />

these applications follow the computer specifications below. The following configuration<br />

is recommended to run Service Technician Workbench on a desktop computer:<br />
