I just can't stand it "My computer is better than yours" this is generally done by people who seek to opaque others with their poor intellect. My point is, that a great variety of people tells you: "My computer is better it's a Mac, or My computer it's better is a Vaio. Dell Sucks, HP too."

Over what base? Actually Dells and HPs are the top most on the whole market, making Dell the producer of the most powerful brand computers in the market -Alienware. And HP has been lately getting out of the competence with their dv5 - dv8 series that possesses incredible CPU and GPU for only a thousand bucks or 1,300 (Aprox.) if selected dv8. And they still say it's ****.

The problem was when my sister came by and told me that if it was true that Dell sucked and Sonys were better, that some classmates told her. I told her that it didn't matter the PC manufacturer, but what was inside. And then I went and asked them why were their computers better than my sisters, and they told me that they had "branded" computers and not **** brands as Dell (Vaios and Macs) or HP.

Then I compared both computers (Both Vista), it was true, the Vaio they were just showing off had a better processor: 2.0 and my sisters 1.8. But then, I checked index score, and they rated 2.8, while my sister's rated 3.5. They got killed in video performance and in Hard Drive, my sister surpassing them by a good quantity. Is not that I'm measuring the city by WEI, but at least for having a lead.

The other and final thing I'm about to say is that they say their computer is **** because it boot slow as hell. You know what was the problem, right? Yup, startup. They bulked up all those unused startup programs: (Adobe, iTunes, etc.) then they begin to crave for more performance. But sincerely, the only thing they do is browse Facebook, youtube, Chat, and play some dumb games on Miniclip. Or in some rare cases, play some computer games, but they are really old, and any computer can handle, like Halo CE.

So, what do you think about people "retardiness"? I don't believe that people know sufficient of computers, so that's why they keep hitting by how gorgeous and how pretty the computer is. Is this enough? Well... yes. The only thing they do, can do it my Windows 2000 computer even better than today's.

ROFL.

The problem I see isn't so much as a certain company sucks, but different companies tend to release better parts. Though it also depends on what needs you have as some tailor to other needs. Netbooks for example are terrible when it comes to games, but perfect for average browsing. =P

What I hate is if it's AMD you get ATi and if it's Intel you get Nvidia. As I'm a huge fan of AMD and Nvidia it makes me angry. Though that's because AMD bought ATi, but whatever.... Though really you could just buy a nameless laptop online too. hehe But some laptop brands are better, as they release top notch **** faster. Such as Alienware computers, though we all know you pay out your ass for that....

For the most part, all computer brands have the same internals. CPU, GPU , HDD, I mean really if you open them up there really are only small differences on the inside. Mainly the only difference is quality of workman ship "not parts" And the case. Even battery life depends on the parts on the inside and the combo that is set up. As for the AMD ATI Intel nvidia. I had a dell XPS that had a intel q6600 with a ATI radeon HD card from factory. And have seen a "few" AMD with Nvidia cards

I think it's childish doing things like that, but there will always be better computers than others, no matter the brand.


What I hate is if it's AMD you get ATi and if it's Intel you get Nvidia.

It changed that fast in a year? My desktop has an AMD processor with an Nvidia card and my laptop has an Intel processor with an Ati card lol. Only the desktop doesn't count here because it's over 3 years old, but I think you can still get computers that are exception to the rule you just stated.

It's getting harder and harder to find since AMD owns ATi lol and so why would you promote the off brand? I know why they do it, I just don't like it.

People look down there nose at eMachine (early wimpy PSU's, bargain basement, Gateway-now-Acer's stepchild, etc) but they had a great idea to put the best budget priced components together solidly in a good looking package.

We have 7 different computers here and I like the eMachine 5234 best. It was one of their last dual cores now that Acer has bought them and pushed them deeper into single-core bargain basement. But I tried one at Best Buy the other day and they still don't bog even with the bloatware (I was trying to take it off in Best Buy, obsessive that I am).
 
eMachines had a GREAT idea, only problem? I HATE WORKING ON THEM!!! Oh god, they have cases so small you could make it into a roach hotel. =(

Hmmm. Mine is the same as the regular HP cases.

I have room in slots for large vid card, wireless PCI and TV tuner.

My friend's older eMachine does have a shrunken little case tho. He really struggled to get a new mobo fit in there, then turned it on and smoked it.

Yes but not all, and I don't like how the older cases don't have a nice side panel like most of the cases you'd buy if you got a case. I like mid/full tower cases though as I hate cramming things together (4 hdd, I need a new case soon...)

:roflmao: You know you have a problem when you are trying to fix the display models.

I have an eMachine lappy (AMD64+ATI) and the thing is an absolute brick. Been 100% reliable though.
