Well, after all the hardwork I've put in on my computer I think it is time to buy a new one. Its too much hassle and too much MONEY to keep this computer updated KINDA like repairing a beatup CAR that will never be perfect. My mom gave me a 500-600 limit on a total computer for a christmas/birthday present (my birthday is less then a month away from christmas to which i normally get 400-600 total so it works out.) And I'm not sure about two computers...kinda hoping you guys could help me pick which one I would be better off with.

Not sure which way to go for. Both of them have 50 dollars off rebates so the prices are in my price range and the stats look kinda a like only I'm not sure if im not noticing anything and thought id ask you guys again like I always do with computer help

What will you be using the computer for, work, or play?Kinda both. The only work I have is school work but that usally means just looking at websites using Office things like that. But I also plan to be playing some games on it also, I have Civ. 3 and Knights Online I usally play at home and would like to play them on a newer computer as the computer I have is crap and chooses when to run them.You do realise that you yourself are just a pawn in a computer game do you?

I don't have any time to play games on this computer so there are no games installed on it.

What does your Father think about it?Strangly enough, my mother kicked my father out when I was little due to do DRUGS and abuse. But I just like playing games. I've always been a video GAMER ever since Atari and just always played um. I'm in college, I don't drink, not a huge party guy so I need to fill the void after studying.mac the boy wants to know what the best computer is,

not contemplate the meaning of life just yet.

Ok Boy! For what its worth they are both practically the same.

Get the cheaper one.

R0SSFill the void by researching a new computer, then come back here with some better options.yea.....well....I have a price range and those two fit, I'm not looking for 1000 dollar computers, I looked at computers under 600 n found those and I already got an answer but thanks anyways
