It is very hard to buy a new computer these days.
You are bombarded from all sides with all this advertising, sales of computer equipment, different technical specification, so that you start questioning your self about your capability to make a decision and buy the right computer for you.
And then you become an easy target for a computer salesman who gives you a "great deal" and sell you for a lot of money something that you don't need.
It should not be like that.
Buying a computer is actually very easy.
You should seat down and in your own time, without any pressure, write down exactly what you need.
Shop around on internet, which is easy these days.
You cannot make mistake.
You have only two CPU manufacturers, Intel and AMD, Several Motherboard manufacturers, same with Video Cards and Ram memory.
So look around and find a best deal that suits you.
You can save a lot of money with this.
You can save a lot of money installing by yourself all extra software that you need.
You can buy even operating system separately and save by installing it on your own.
Many people are scared to install operating system by themselves.
But that is maybe the simplest thing around.
You just need to follow onscreen instruction from installation CD, and for any questions, you always have available Toll Free line for support.
Another thing where you can save money is extended warranty.
You really don't need this, even if it sounds great when computer salesman is presenting this offer to you.
You have your standard warranty, and if something goes wrong, that will be definitely in the time while your warranty is still in effect.
