I am a graphic designer and I use both an iMac and PC at work. However, I want to get a computer at home. I'm debating between an iMac or a PC. I'll be using it mostly for CS3, photography and web design. I don't want to spend alot of money. I have to have Microsoft Office to be able to do online classes. (Enrolled in Web Design)
I know there are lots of things you can do on a PC that you can't do on a Mac and visa versa.

Someone please help!!!!

I am not a hardware specialist. Can I increase the size of my disk space (drive C) without erasing anything ? Do I have to add another drive or can I, and if so, do I have to erase everything? I am using Windows XP.

Every once in awhile I accidentally press the Sleep/Hibernate button on my keyboard (it has a moon by it). My computer powers down and the power button flashes with an amber light. My problem is I can't get the computer to start back up when this happens. I press the power button, I press and hold the power button, I press all the keys on the keyboard, nothing works. I have to unplug the power cord to get the damn thing running again. Any suggestions?

so my friend's basement was recently flooded due to the rain, and his computer suffered a bit of damage. i advised him to let it dry out before turning it back on. the problem was that the monitor wasn't display anything however the computer powered on and wasn't receiving an output signal from the computer. So I hooked up my laptop to the screen to confirm it still works. We installed a graphics card in the PCI slot but to no luck. any other suggestions as an option we can do to perhaps get it working again?

thanks in advance.

My goal is to have a backup of all of my data (including Quicken, Outlook & Word files) on my computer in case it crashes. I also want to have a backup for all of my digital photos (I have at least a 5GB of pictures and very short clips of video). I've gone through the experience of the Blue Screen of Death in the past year did NOT have much backup - I don't want to go through that again! I need something simple and easy to set up - your suggestions are most welcome!!
