Buying A New Computer

I will be buying a new computer soon. I wanted to get some advice from some of y'all.
Does anyone have an all-in-one computer?
I will be using it at home, browsing AFF, paying my bills, FB, and game apps on FB. Like Farmville, etc.
I prefer Dell, but am not opposed to HP or other brands.
Prefer Windows 7.
How much memory should it have, and all the other RAM stuff that I don't know what it means....

Re: Buying A New Computer

I don't prefer ALL in Ones unless it is a laptop

What do you do if the monitor goes bad? Can you upgrade? How easy is it to repair?

Id rather have a box I can open up and work on if need be or upgrade than something that is built into a monitor

With Win7 no less than 3-4 Ram..the more the better

  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Re: Buying A New Computer

For one thing it would be all but impossible to buy a computer with less then 4 gigs at this point. Four, six, and eight are the standard sizes now. ALL of them will come with Windows 7.

I would definitely buy a desktop system with a separate monitor. As far as brands, I couldn't offer much advice unless I was physically walking with you through the computer store.

It will be a desktop more than likely. Unless I can get a laptop cheaper, and use my old monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Most laptop screens are too small for me.

It will probably be at Best Buy and a Dell.

Okay, I had decided against the all-in-one. 4+ RAM then, thanks.

Re: Buying A New Computer

Macs may be the best but they are very expensive. If you are on a budget you will need to stick to a windows computer.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
