Very sad indeed. Beetle's advice is also helpful, people have different needs, and believe it or not, many will be more wealthy than you. I know of people who think spending $1000s of dollars on a simple computer, doing no more than Excel, is too cheap for man's likings. |

| 229160 | 2004-04-14 05:37:00 | <groan> Not again . . . . The Warehouse are obviously doing alright with selling these Dell computers otherwise they wouldn't have got another lot in so soon after the first batch . These computers are perfectly alright for people like my sister, brother, father-in-law and a few friends who do nothing but a bit of word processing, surf the net, emails and the odd "light" game that doesn't tax the system one bit . Heck, that is all that my Win 98 computer does these days and that Dell must have at least ten times more grunt even with Win XP on it . And it is nearly a third of the price I paid . :-( Hmmm . . . . . . I had better not let the tribe see that flyer or they will be demanding to get one instead of having to queue up to play The Sims on my Beast these days . :p :D |

A machine built to these specs is also able to sustain 100 percent load for extended periods . In order to get a good quality machine that is worth buying then one needs to buy quality hardware,personaly i recomend everyone get a computer with a standalone video card,even if its just a fx5200 and the machine will never be taxed by DOOM3(not that a fx5200 would run it anyway),The machine wont slow down as it won't need to share ram,the display will be far superior,it will be able to handle much more info on screen,It will have the ability for TV_out and suport mutiple monitors . AND . . . . it also doubles as a superiour gaming platform when the need arises . I judge a computer on the merits of its hardware,a computer is more then a cpu,That 1400 system is no better then their 999 system purely because they are only capable of the same tasks . |
