Basically I started off looking at a game minimum specs (bioshock) and recommended specs when i thought i should upgrade my PC.

My PC isn't THAT bad..
2.4Ghz
1Gb Ram
360Gb Hard-drive (2 seperate)

However instead of looking into upgrading 1)my Ram 2)my CPU and 3)my Graphic, My brother told me to just looking at getting a new PC.

Now i have seen PC's on ebay that look insane ending @ about £350. When i see insane, i mean 2-4x the processing power, Ram, and graphics of my PC. I've been wondering, how do they make those so cheap? whats the catch? Is it because they don't include mouse/keyboard/monitor, etc? Do they use cheap parts (excluding the CPU)?

Has anyone bought a PC off ebay and is satisfied?

I've just bought a new Dell Vostro 1700 but I see it's coming with Windows Vista. I have a Windows XP CD from my previous computer and would like to use this CD to reformat my new laptop to use Windows XP.

Where do I find out all the drivers I need to download to install onto my new reformatted laptop?

Also, will I lose any unique Dell features if I do this?

I need to know how much I should sell it for. It has an Intel core 2 duo E4400 processor, a D945GCCRL essential series intel motherboard (integrated graphics). It also has a 20x DVD burner/ 48x CD burner, 1 gb of 533MHZ Kingston memory and a 480 watt PSU. Oh yeah, and a cool black case with two front USB hubs (eight hubs USB 2.0 total). I am going to put windows xp home on it.
total cost for me: $610 (aprox.)
How much should I ask for it?
thanks for the help.

I refer to a question posted earlier :

" Why is Vista premium such pile of steaming crap

I also refer to one of the answers given :

"
becouse it is gay. my retarded brother bought it. Its the gayest comp ever...!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

What is the matter with these people, Vista is the finest operating system Microsoft has produced to date.

I for one have been using it since the day it was released.

OK. There were some incompatability issues, but nothing that couldnt be fixed by expending some of the grey matter.

Surely thats what computing is all about is it not ?

One of the great things with Vista is you need to THINK when you are using it.

Maybe some of these youngsters are incapable of doing that !

What are your thoughts?

I dont mind receiving insults in the answers, just as long as they carry some substance.

I for one am sick of reading VISTA SUCKS or VISTA IS GAY without some sort of reason for the statement !

XP is history.
