Not for gamers really
Review of Compaq Presario SR5250NX - P E2140 1.6 GHz by alisarialtun

Advantages: relatively cheap to faster ones
Disadvantages: slow, heat problem

As I have mentioned in many of my other reviews I am a real game addict and playing games with my computer is an essential thing. I believe the same thing is also applicable for most of the pc users as I always see people are complaining about their PC specs and always say their pc is so slow. A typical computer user wouldn't really need that much of a performance from a pc BUT only if they are not playing games on their computers. Playing games ...
...on our computer as home users. If you read the overview of that prodcut you will see that it is very useful for home and office usage. I really can't say it is wrong or right though.

The Dual Core processors have a problem with the heat as I have experienced and wouldn't really recommend ... Read review

Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz - 20" TFT by itsteebo

Advantages: stable, fast, easy to use
Disadvantages: some programs aren't compatible

...to get used to the Apple Interface...it couldn't have been easier! My mac never crashes, i don't even have an anti virus program on it and it runs beautifully! The only down side i've found so far is that as a musician you have to be incredibly careful with the software and hardware that you buy. There have been great strides to make everything compatible with mac, but there are still a lot of programs that do not work with the mac, like Fruity ... Read review

super big space and large ram
Review of HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f - Phenom X4 9500 2.2 GHz by stanvy

Advantages: fast speed, big space
Disadvantages: not seeing it so far

This HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f - Phenom X4 9500 2.2 GHz desktop is quite valuable for its value, it is consider as budget desktop PC. One thing I like about this PC is that it comes with a huge 5 GB Ram memory, which is really an advantage for me to save money on the ram itself. Beside, that super huge 750GB hard disk space give me a very large space to store all my movies unlimited without a need to consider whether my hard disk is enough ... Read review
