As near as I can tell on this list, all interested in computers are welcome
as long as they aren't obnoxious and they send money to the other list
members.

Awwww, okay, you can be obnoxious once.

And you can just send the money to me.  (Sorry guys and gals.)

;)

Welcome.

was rumoured to have uttered....

          |  Hi David, and all who answered......
          |      Thanks for the response!  Much appreciated.   There is a
          |  good computer place here in town that will build one to ones'
          |  own specs, but wouldn't that turn out costing as much or more
          |  for a Dell?  I'm not quite comfortable with building my own at
          |  this point.     By the way, am I on the right list, or should
          |  I be at some other lower level list?
          |  thanks,
          |  Nanne

          |  with your own hands. It might cost a little more, but in my
          |  eyes it's worth
          |  it. And if you go this route, you'll definitely need that XP
          |  disc that I
          |  told you to hold on to. If you buy, you really can't beat a
          |  DELL for a
          |  desktop system. And look around the net for coupons that may
          |  offer free
          |  upgrades or price reduction. Now if you want a full featured
          |  laptop, that's
          |  a different story. I would recommend Sager Notebooks
          |  (http://www.sagernotebook.com/index.html). These things are
          |  incredible, and
          |  you can spec them however you want inlcuding your OS.

          |  
          |  What a great list!! Glad I found it...
          |  
          |  I hope this first question is kosher......
          |  
          |  Last spring after my computer bit the dust, numerous online
          |  friends were advising me to build my own pc (which is a bit
          |  laughable as I'm
          |  just now really learning how everything works). Anyway, at the
          |  time I went
          |  to one computer sales/show and picked up WINXP. To make a long
          |  story
          |  short, I'm just now able to get around to getting a newer PC,
          |  and want to
          |  know: Can I re-sell this? It is still in the wrapper with the
          |  license
          |  number on it, has never been opened. Or is that illegal and
          |  should I just
          |  pass it on to my cousin who still has WIN98?
          |  
          |  I'm an artist wanting to build a website and get my work
          |  online.
          |  I've been advised that the minimum I should look for is
          |  2.0-2.6 GHZ, 256
          |  RAM, no less than 40 GB HD. Has everyone here built their own
          |  systems,
          |  or are there folks who have purchased complete systems, and if
          |  so, what do
          |  people recommend?
          |  
          |  Thanks,
          |  
          |  Nanne B.
