Ordering A New Desktop PC Questions, Please. (from a Sr. citizen)
Hello,
It looks like my three year old hp pavilion desktop pc has given up the ghost.
Haven't got the energy to put in a new hd now at my age, so will just get,something new.
I still want a desktop model, though.
From the little,I've read, it seems that there are about the same percentage of likes and dislikes for hp vs. Dell, vs...
Can go up to perhaps $ 750 or so.
I would be most grateful for opinions from you experts.
Is there any kind of consensus these days as to which brand offers the best
In reliability, service, value, etc. ?
What about other than dell and hp; e.g., Asus, which frankly I know nothing about ?
Others ?
Anything in particular I should be aware of to get or order with ? Any caveats, etc. ?
Much thanks, really predicate the help.
BTW: is a three year life pretty typical for a desktop pc left on perhaps for twenty hours per day ?
Do they come now with a Cert. for a free upgrade to W8 which I guess is due out in the Fall ?
Thanks,
Bob
