My First PC??

[Sheilas’ Wheels]

Hello intelligent people.

I'm wanting to buy a computer for my house, but don't have any fcuking idea what to look for. I want to surf the net, download Music, and be able to send/receive photos of cars to and from autotrader.
Laptop or desktop (flat monitor), not really bothered, but my budget cannot exceed 350-400 sheets of my hard earned.

HELP!!

Ive got a dell, came in a box, no installation chap needed, took half hour for me to plug in, was dead simple, and is superb. Would recommend one fella.

Lol, my dells had no problems, it does the trick, if you dont like the software on it delete it?? duh!

All well and good being a smartass, but its the guys first pc, he's hardly gonna build one himself is he...

 

[dick]

to be honest mate, what i did when i wanted my first pc, looked on pcworld etc, to look at what expensive pcs spec had, then went to local pc supplies and got them to build me a similar spec'd one, but tailored exactly to my wants and made sure i didnt pay for anything that i didnt need, ie. modem / floppy drive s**t like that

And your not dealing with some muppet on ebay either, superior spec as well except the monitor being smaller.

Yeah, but the wiring of the motherboard is the only "hard" part. Besides, I'm sure he's got a mate that could through it together.
