360 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) Alright, well I haven't used Windows in a long time and well I decided to give it a try again, because my Mac broke a few days ago and so I was wondering, which one should I get? I have saved up around $ 800. Please post some recommendations on what kind of PC you think I should get below, thank you. Edit: I found 2 computers (One is a Toshiba and the other is a Dell), tell me if I can get something better than these, I picked 2 randomly, so if they are crap, then talk about a different computer. First computer: Toshiba Satellite U500-S2960 Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Screen: 13.3" (1280x800) HD Processor: 2.2 GHz Intelî Coreâ⢠2 Duo T6600 Ram: 4 GB DDR2 800 MHz Storage: 320 GB HDD 5400 RPM Video Card: Integrated Intelî Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD Weight: 4.7 lbs Ports: 3 USB 2.0, 1 HDMI, Memory Card Optical Drive: CD R/W, DVD R/W Wireless: B, G, N Networking: 10/100/1000 Ethernet Tv Tuner: None Other: Fingerprint Reader Keyboard size: 100 % Dedicated # Pad: No Here are some pictures of it. http://i.microsoft.com/windows/pc-scout//pcImages/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a_top_open_large.jpg http://i.microsoft.com/windows/pc-scout//pcImages/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a_front_open_large.jpg http://i.microsoft.com/windows/pc-scout//pcImages/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a/bd3b859f-57ac-de11-89ea-02bf9d3bf32a_left_front_diagonal_large.jpg For the Dell computer, you can look at it by clicking the link on your right.

I tried to build one a few years ago and failed miserably, but if that is my last resort, then I will be fine with doing that.
gruntmods Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 I tried to build one a few years ago and failed miserably, but if that is my last resort, then I will be fine with doing that.what did you do wrong?
360 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Posted November 25, 2009 what did you do wrong? I don't think I remember it that well, and I don't think I still have the computer or not but, I might still have it, anyway I think I messed up on something with the motherboard, not sure anymore, but building a computer would take too long for me, because I have so many things to do during the day now, and I don't really have the time to wait, and I need one this weekend, so I really would prefer not doing that, but if that's my last resort then I will do it, I really don't like any hp products for some reason, but any recommendations are welcome.
lostmodz26 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 Ugh...more people with better computers than me.
360 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Posted November 25, 2009 Ugh...more people with better computers than me. What kind of computer do you have? And what kind of computer do you think I should get?
lostmodz26 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 What kind of computer do you have? And what kind of computer do you think I should get? I have a netbook that runs at 800 by 600 resolution with an Intel Atom Processor.
360 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Posted November 25, 2009 I have a netbook that runs at 800 by 600 resolution with an Intel Atom Processor. Didn't you just buy another one recently?
lostmodz26 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 Didn't you just buy another one recently? No.
Diggy Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) Don't buy the Toshiba laptop. Infact, don't buy a laptop at all. I suggest you buy a desktop computer, because you get a lot better value for money, or if push comes to shove, build your own. If i remember correctly, Randomrocket is making a step-by-step tutorial on how to build a computer. *EDIT*Click here for Randomrockets tutorial. Edited November 25, 2009 by Diggy
