    i think most are basically the same its just the pric thats different but then again you get what you pay for.like a mate of mine he paid £1300 for his dell and what was inside absolute crap hes now changed most of it in his first 6 months.

    Anyone ever seen a View Sonic Computer? I know they make Monitors all day, but I saw a View Sonic Computer, looked pretty damn nice. It looked like an Alienware machine a little, I think it was more built like an HP computer, you know the one that is called the Media, video machine or whatever...Made for digital edit and all that crap...

    No Afterdawn isn't offering any prizes for making new threads and making an ass of yourself. I was hoping I would get maybe a gift Certificate or something to Best Buy or something though :)

    Kamran....Believe it or not, People Post Threads on here, about computers, Hardware, Software...And all Computer related issues. Not making threads to impress, don't know enough about Computers to Impress, far from it, maybe that's why I make threads...Hmmm Ya never know.

    If I'm not interested in a certain thread(topic) or I think it's stupid, I got the option to not go to that thread. It's pretty effective.

    When I made this thread. The only thing I said is Hello...This is true, I just wanted to start this thread and thought it would be a good idea. Never seen any other thread that talks about different factory built computer systems like, Dell, HP, Gateway, and so on. Didn't really have a question on it, just wanted to start it up. If People can make threads about Mexicans, I think I can start a thread about Computers. I see alot of threads started without a question, they just go on and on about what kind of computer they got and how kick ass it is and such. Next People will be telling you what to write on here and how much of it. GEEZ

    Kamran: lay off, i think he got the idea about how to start a thread

    All the same day, only a few minutes apart expect the last one.....

    It is better off in 1 post instead of multiple.

    I dont know if its just me, put seeing that is kind of annoying, when usually people just want to get their post count up.....

    The 'basics' of a comptuer is the same, jsut differnt components, differnt brands etc... But basically the same.

    I do about 5 posts a minute ... you gonna start complaining now? (readies hot DDR memory)

    I had the same thought (and I still have my reservations) but yeah jsrife, Cozza is right -- the basics of a midrange computer are about all the same, the basics for a budget system are about all the same but note the basics ofa bleeding edge system are nowhere near the same -- and note that I wrote essentially the same saentence out three times because you cant compare between price brackets and roles. I've just noted that you have a tendency to make this really wild comparisons -- and these comparisons either mean nothing or they dont give anything useful

    Sounds like 1st year university students :p

    The best way to know you have value for money is by building your own system for a lot less.You know what is going in to it as you choose for yourself and hey it's great fun building it.Also believe me it is not that difficult to do.I had a friend help me with my pc which i hand picked part for part and was really good.But my mate was a real star as he know's it all and really taught me a lot.Now i feel i could complely build one from scratch on my own.
