Meh, if you want to play games with it, you probably want to build your own PC. Especially if you are on a budget. If you don't really play anything that needs good specs, then just do what Bosco said. A decent, but not good, computer will cost about 400-500 dollars regardless. |

$400-$500 = crap computer. It's the minimal range. Building your own computer also isn't THAT cheap either, and it's not a super duper easy job if you don't know what your doing. |

$400-500 is enough to buy an adequate computer for most people's needs. The PC I'm on cost $300, pre-built, I bought a videocard for about $100, and I got more RAM for about $60. It has no problem running all of the applications I use, like CSS and Eclipse. And building your own computer is a lot cheaper than a pre-built one. You just can't argue against that. ._. |

The computer I'm buying is 370. It's REALLY good. The dude told me the proccessor was kind of slow, but I could honestly care less about that. With 169 fucking gigs. o_O |

It looks pretty good, though you'll want more ram and a videocard...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bosco, it comes with Windows Vista Home BASIC! Basic is absoluetly horrible, they took like every feature known to man out. Let me show you a feature list.
Basically all you are getting is instant search, which you can easily have in XP with Google Desktop Search. Fork over a little more money and get Home Premium. |

That's what I was thinking. Or I could just stick with the default shit. I really don't care eitherway. It took me a long time to pirate XP, so it must not be the easiest to get your hands on Vista for free. =/ |

Well I don't play games on the PC. I MIGHT pickup WoW just so I can check it out and play with my cousin, and I heard WoW doesn't require much so thats pretty much a bonus for me, haha. I'll probably start Photo editing again if I get Photoshop or something else ( I lost a lot of stuff when my Comp crashed) Lets see...I'll probably be using for -Photo editing (Probably the thing I'll be doing most other than Browsing the net) -music (I don't need much, WMP is fine by me) -Word is pretty much neccisary... - Movies(maybe) I'll be sure to look for something with 1G+ of RAM and lots of memory. I'm not much of a PC gamer, and if I decided to pickup gaming then I'd probably pick up Radion or whatever that other one was (For WoW) And I'll basicly get the Premium XD |

Yea some standard PC with 1 GB of RAM should be plenty for you. It doesnt hurt to have a Hard Drive over 100 GB as well. |
