michaelper22 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2006 I would suggest getting an ethernet card - in case you get DSL or cable and you need the port. Otherwise for 600 bucks that's a pretty hot machine. Where did you find that computer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mahawirasd 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2006 for a desktop i agree with grave digger... i prefer an AMD PC.. the turion series are good...save yourself some money and forget about the SATA harddisk. IMHO we don't need the SATA speed yet... and i have had some rather nasty experience with SATA HDD's...i usually use logitech for keyboard and mouse, they're nice...for speakers, altec lansing is a guarantee...have fun...

Here is what i have on my computer -Hewlett-Packard pavillion, amd anthlonxp 2800+ 80gb hdd, and 512ram. I got that computer for 700 dollars, without moniters and printer.

believer 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2006 your plan has a pretty neat specification, most programs will have no problem running in there and with the price that low I say you go for it, just get a nice video card and you will ge all set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
