computer

Post by the lurkist »

here is a question that I am sure many folks on here can give advice on-
We need a new computer. This lap top is slow.
We need a cheap as possible but with as much storage as possible and fast as possible. Those descriptors exhaust my computer knowledge base.
Where is the best place to shop, and how much should one pay, given this market?
thanks

If storage is a big issue for you....Go to Costco and buy 2 external hard drives...I'm use two 210GB Hard drives and they cost about $160.00 each...Just by them as needed. I'm using a sony viao laptop and with the hard drives I dont have to keep ANYTHING on the stock drive...It helps keep you comp running fast too
