Salvaged for the time being

[kikotei]

Well, I still need to get rid of some files. I think tomorrow afternoon I'll hit radioshack or strawberries and pick up some Music CD-Rs and dump all my mp3 and wav sound files onto discs that I can actually get to play in my computer. I rarely listen to MP3s on my computer anymore anyway. Typically I grab a CD and take it with me in the car.

Fact remains that I still need a new computer. ::eyes the beastly contraption carefully::

*GRIN* well January has some really great deals.

If you have about $800 you can scrape together I can get you a really good system

Let me see how things look in after the holidays. Right now I do have over 800, but most of that is school funds set aside for books and tuition.

What would 800 get me?

[cassiopeia13.livejournal.com]

Pentium 4
Windows XP
CD player, burner/DVD player combo Duel drive
Floppy drive
15 in Flat pannel Monitor (or a 17 regular)
Keyboard/Mouse
Speakers (and if you have some, save yourself $20 and use your own)
Anti Virus software
80 GB Harddrive
512 memory

Comes to about 836 without tax. CT tax is about $6. But that's todays Promotions. We'll have better ones in January... so everyone tells me.

If we have a really good special or someone comes in with a super EValue code I'll let you know that night.

My thanks.

I'm looking to probably go a little higher end. But I think I still need to research and see everything that everyone offers.

Don't do Gateway or IBM they're going out of buisness. *heh* HP is very very good though and Dell.. just as someone who researched, not as a sales person.

But if you're going to go to a company do HP or Dell.

The one I'm getting high end, is about 1400 (with a TV turner)
