New Computer

[kelbel]

Since my computer was stolen I went and did a little looking of what is out there. I found a HP Media center m7160n photosmart pc and I can get it for 1149.00. Is there anything else comparable that I should be looking at?

It was stolen?  When?  How?

You can get the same machine at Wal-Mart for $100 less.

But unless you are going to be doing some serious multimedia editing or high-bandwidth media streaming I think that it may be a bit of overkill to shell out that kind of coin for a new PC.

During the weekend my Mother went out of town and I went by boyfriends house. They busted through the backdoor and stole all the electronics out of the house. Of course most was mine. I just purchased a new wireless router and currently signed on with the laptop (after spending hours on the phone with my cable company) This completely sucks.

I saw that when I continued surfing. I like the feature of being able to watch tv on the pc and  I think I am going to have help paying for it so I will only have to pay about 600.00 for it. That is not a bad deal.

My mom does not have renter's insurance. I will change that now once I get a new PC.

I wish I could come off with jokes off the top of my head. This topic is perfect for me. The computer stolen from my house was an emachine.

That sucks Kel.

That does suck Kelbel.

Have you thought about eBay?  My computer was great from eBay.  Aside from the dog knocking it over and breaking it.

That sucks Kel.

I hate laptops as the main computer. BAH!

Get an external keyboard and mouse and you won't know the difference.
