What is the best desktop computer package i can get for under 1000 dollars. I do alot with music and photos...

You get what you pay for. Desktops are really cheap nowadays. I would go with a major trusted brand like Sony. Dells are cheap but they are really crap. I own both and my Sony is so much better, I've never had problems, unlike my dell.|||*dork

|||Hi, u can get some pretty decent computers for under $1000. If u play a lot of music and do some stuff with photos. Then get any nice decent computer for that price. You could get a Windows Vista pc for that price withput any problems, however if u want to improve the hardware a bit then why not use Linux and since its free and improve ur hardware specs a bit more. If u choose Windows then make sure its Windows Vista, since Windows Vista's new security features resemble the Linux kernel. U could still try Linux if u want since u don't play games I guess. Here is what I think u could get for ur price:


intel core dual 2.0 ghz


2gb ram


at least 80gb hard disk


dvd-rw


built in sound and lan card


256 to 512 mb vga card


mouse


keyboard


webcam


monitor of course


The computer will run Windows Vista without any problems.


Good Luck and take care!|||alienware. joke.





try HP erm...





maybe a 20" monitor


2GB Kingston (or not) RAM


250GB hard drive


AMD Athlon 64 X2 Live 2.0ghz or more


erm...Altec Lansing Surround Speakers


Windows XP Media Center (recommended) but surely not Vista! (because I find Vista soooo annoying)


erm, maybe a Nvidia 6600 PCI-Express 256mb will do.





or try a Mac, because you said you like photos and music. but i dont think they have something under a thousand bucks. lol.|||probably a dell color laptop they're about $900 they have a good memeory and webcam and microphone included!|||Are you kidding me? Please go to newegg.com and sort by users choice ... dell.com is horrible|||if you're mostly music and photos





and under $1,000.00 I would really consider saving up a little more and getting a imac





entry imac is $1,199.00 and is worth every penny, its a little over what you wanted to spend but, you won't be let down|||there are alot which will not help you its your money but you should comparison shop on line all the namebrands and stores for closouts and deals. IE Frys, Best Buy, Stapels and Curcit City, all the big stores and check in your area for local it shops. Hope all goes well for ya.|||HP 6112N bundle for $800
