Re: I'm not 100% sure they make desktop computers (I mean, I imagine they would)... Paradox Bain Send a noteboard - 30/09/2010 01:26:21 AM
but I've always been VERY happy with my hp computers and products. They aren't the cheapest computers, but I have regretted NOT getting an hp computer to replace my last laptop.

Also, if you know what you're looking for, I've had good luck with our Best Buy guys here. Unfortunately, stores like Best Buy are a bit touch-go on the whole as far as advice goes, so I'm not sure if your stores are as helpful.

Anyway. I'd recommend an hp computer.


They still make desktops! I can't believe you would think they don't
I'm also looking to buy one because we are currently computerless.

What do you do with your computer? Desktop or Laptop? *NM* Roland00 - 28/09/2010 11:18:57 PM 163 Views
Desktop. I have network access storage for work files so I don't ever use laptops. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:25:15 AM 359 Views
Okay, now what will you use the desktop for? Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:49:15 AM 369 Views
HP Pavilion Elite. ≥8GB RAM. 1TB Memory. 1GB video card. They offer about 3-4 models like that. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 28/09/2010 11:35:32 PM 161 Views

Doesn't the US have companies that let you pick the parts and then they assemble for a small fee? *NM* Helene - 29/09/2010 06:05:09 AM 150 Views
Most of those options were only $20 - $40 more than the base options Tom - 29/09/2010 01:50:20 PM 372 Views
Here is what I would recommend Roland00 - 30/09/2010 05:36:08 PM 404 Views
It gives me an error if I try to set up that configuration. Tom - 30/09/2010 06:19:34 PM 385 Views

You might like a Sony BlackAdder - 28/09/2010 11:43:56 PM 389 Views
Sony machines, especially their laptops, are vastly overpriced in my opinion. Morgawse - 28/09/2010 11:55:13 PM 356 Views
If you're looking purely at specs, yes that's true BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 04:36:52 AM 351 Views
I'm fairly sure that Sony no longer makes normal "desktops" Brian - 29/09/2010 12:58:00 AM 383 Views
Correct Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:52:17 AM 364 Views
That's what I thought. Brian - 29/09/2010 02:54:20 AM 410 Views
hmm, alright then BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 02:37:59 AM 366 Views
Yeah it bummed me out too. Brian - 29/09/2010 02:52:28 AM 379 Views

I've found Sony to be frustrating to deal with. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:26:33 AM 370 Views
Yeah they've been going downhill BlackAdder - 29/09/2010 02:42:33 AM 368 Views
HP used to be good, but I've been hearing bad things recently. Ghavrel - 29/09/2010 12:58:44 AM 378 Views
What bad things have you heard? Tom - 29/09/2010 01:27:23 AM 380 Views

I had no problem running multiple programs for hours at a time. everynametaken - 29/09/2010 07:11:08 AM 400 Views
I am curious what is your model? *NM* Roland00 - 29/09/2010 01:15:09 PM 159 Views
It was a C500 I believe. everynametaken - 02/10/2010 01:30:29 AM 365 Views
I like my HP better than my dell. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:14:39 AM 370 Views
Did the bad computer lick your apples? *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:23:00 AM 152 Views
No, that would be a bad thing. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:34:59 AM 350 Views
But that Dell was the bad computer. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:37:09 AM 134 Views
Hmm. I've just made an amazingly stupid post. nossy - 29/09/2010 01:40:02 AM 352 Views
Crack is wack, yo. Stick to grass. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:41:21 AM 335 Views
Dell sucks more dick than a gay boy at his first Pride event. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:21:06 AM 366 Views
I liked your "like a gay for pay frat boy" euphemism better. Tom - 29/09/2010 01:28:13 AM 364 Views
Well, they can't all be hits and I try not to recycle material too often. LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 01:31:37 AM 344 Views
Re: Dell dick gay boy event. Gaps - 29/09/2010 02:59:38 AM 370 Views
I didn't say he'd do it well. But yes, I believe a significant quantity of pole smoking would occur. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 03:02:38 AM 140 Views

I've heard they have problems with their customer service. *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 11:52:25 AM 149 Views
I heard the opposite. They respond quickly and effectively. *NM* Gher - 29/09/2010 03:36:03 PM 150 Views
No customer ever complains twice, eh? *NM* LiterateDog - 29/09/2010 03:36:52 PM 143 Views
Nope. Gher - 30/09/2010 03:24:23 AM 339 Views
