Review of Compaq Presario SR2150NX - Celeron D 356 3.33 GHz by andyt545

Advantages: Does you the bare minimum reasonable well.
Disadvantages: Don't get me started...

...with this PC. Purchasing a compaq I felt confident I would get the full Vista experience and be ahppy with my PC. I could never be so wrong. Firstly it looks horrible, fat, colourless and mixutres of grey. A great start. Secondly its unreliable, sometimes it won't start up, sometimes programs will randomly freeze, sometimes it own't shut down, sometimes things won't connect by usb and ALWAYS my Ipod won't sync with itunes. As far as the components ...
...mouse and an ok screen but you need to buy yourself decent speakers. As far as Vista gos I'm not too impressed. Ok there are a few visual differences between XP and this, but nothing major. Also Vista can't run half the programs avaliable yet so I recommend waiting before you upgrade. Overall a poor performance computer, that will do you the bare minimium (word, music etc.) well. ...

Advantages: Fast, reliable, double layer disk drive.
Disadvantages: An occasional freeze up.

I purchased the Emachines T3958 four or five years ago, and it is still the best computer in our house. We have two desktop computers and three laptops in our home, but the T3958 is everybody's favorite. I bought my computer at Circuit City. Trust me, I am not a computer geek, so I welcome the aid of a knowledgeable sales clerk. They patiently walk around with me while I ask questions about different computers. Then, based on my needs, I make a ...
...is how I picked the Emachines T3958. It has an Intel Celeron D340 processor, 512 MB memory, double layer drive, and 80 GB hard drive. (For further details, please see the product description).

My husband uses it to look at investment property, research home improvement projects and for Nascar.com. This computer ... 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
