-=PCTechTalk=- Re: PC -- Limited Funds

I absolutely positively agree with you.

I just bought a new machine and added a few bells & whistles to it.  It was
cheaper in my case to add the extra ram after the sale as well as the
upgrade to the video card.  I also purchased a 5 yr warranty.  If it breaks
I can take it to the store, if they cannot fix it in 24 hours they will give
me a loaner pc.  That was $250 and well worth it in my book.  My video card
addition does not affect the warranty, they would not replace that
though...but I bought a $12 warranty on that.  The ram I added, I purchased
from the same store, so that is not a problem either.

I do believe in buying the best I can..and then being able to do what I want
to do the way I want to do it and not have to worry so much about slow
downs, etc. Kudos!

When I bought my system from Gateway -- I gave consideration to
2 factors -- what I wanted to use it for over the next 5 years
and weighed it against cost.  It's true I could have bought a
less expensive system but this one can be expanded (the RAM)
when the need arises.

I had already spent $600 to $800 to upgrade my other computers
but I still did not have a computer that could do what I
wanted.  So that was actually money I put down the drain so to
speak.

So my attitude now is buy the best and hang the cost because
over the long run it ends up being less expensive.  A valuable
lesson learned the hard way.
