Best The gateway you posted. Now the Gateway has a HDMI port so you can connect the tower to your TV and use your TV as a monitor as long as your TV has a HDMI port.

------------------

Danu where do you live again? What other stores do you have besides Best Buy?


Burlington VT, As far as I know to buy computers Best Buy, Staples and Wal-mart and Radio Shake. There is a local Apple store also but don't really want an Apple.

Don't want to go to Wal-mart though.

That sounds like it would suit your needs. I think Gateway can die in a fire, though. LadyLorraine - 27/02/2010 06:17:46 PM 230 Views
