The Best Computer?

Question

What is the all time best DESKTOP computer out there. I do not want laptop information. If you could please tell me why you love that computer and what you use it for. I hate Dell and always will. I hear Apple is the best, I used one and it worked pretty well. I am looking for one that I can use for college and then in a Restaurant so it Must hold a lot of big files and lots of them. Thanks!!! Please anwser honestly.

I don't see anything about Apple Computers. I hear they are great from a reliable source. The school districts Media Technology Center uses Apples and say they work great. They use them for the Cable channel. Are they tricking me into buying something not worth the money? Oh and by the way I WILL NEVER BUY A DELL AGAIN!!!

Thanks for all your help. Alienware is not in my budget. I may get one custom designed or one by HP.

Answer 1

The all time every time best computer to buy is a CUSTOM Built one, that way you can put in all the parts you want, and not get all that garbage software trail ware etc.that they ad on.(You have control ,you can put in quality parts) If you need lots of storage space you can get any size hard drive you want ...Seagate & Western Digital are good brands.

If you want a Windows machine get a Core 2 Duo Intel Processor, Asus Motherboards are solid,

Mac's today are Intel based so they can run Windows, you can get a program called Parallels.

Go to your locale computer stores and get a quote, to see who has the best price on the parts you want.

Answer 2

The best computer companies I know are:

1) HP (resonable prices)
2) Sony (resonable prices, but mostly expensive)
3) Gateway (resonable prices)
4) Alienware (very expensive)

I'd prefer HP. Their website helps you pick the best computer for your needs, and lets you customize it with more hardware and software.

NEVER GET A DELL. THEY SUCK, THEY'RE CHEAP, AND THEY BREAK EASILY.

At my school, they use DELL laptops, and almost every month, something wrong happens. Like a key breaks off, or the screen has errors, or there are compatibility errors with flash drives.

Alienware is all about fashion. It has the BEST LOOKING computers ever. It even customizes the desktop icons and background to make it look like Vista or something even better, when you are really using XP.

Answer 3

Hi. The best one is the one that meets your current and future needs. You need a large capacity hard drive with a second hard drive for backup. Does not sound like you need a high end GPU or multi-core processors. I would go for a gig or two of RAM.

Answer 4

AlienWare is a great computer. But sometimes the hardrive breaks fast. But, I have Gateway and it's a really good computer.

Answer 5

The best cpu out there is dell next runner up is hp and then conpaq when u buy the cpu trie to aim for xp not vista they are having problem like in a halfa year you might want vist you can always upgrade to vista later

Answer 6

Alienware make computers with massive amounts of storage space and that are really fast, so you might say they are the best. It's just they are not the most reliable.
