Deathmath Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Aaaarghhhh. I was gonna build a computer last summer didn't. Now this laptop is getting me mad... so... Time to build a good computer for $1000 or less. :P I am competent in putting it together, but am admittedly lacking in hardware knowledge. Uses would be c++, internet, research, light gaming, the hardest game I might play would be either TF2 or COD4. Plus word processing email etc. And also a good 20 or 22" monitor. I also am not sure about what OS... Thoroughly retired, may still write now and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nadril Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Jaerk's build is a really good one. Very solid PC. You can then get a monitor for around $200 (a 22") on newegg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJoe Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Well, Ubuntu running games thru Wine is one possibility. I think MS will offer a free upgrade from Vista to Win7, but i'm not 100% sure... you might want to check it out. Anyways, a 64-bit OS. J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
