When buying a computer a common myth is if I only have basic needs I only need a basic computer. That’s often a true statement, but right now is a time of change and planning ahead now can save you in the long run.
As you may have heard Windows Vista is coming out in early 2007 and most machines you buy now will come with an upgrade voucher for an (almost) free Vista Upgrade. Here’s the planning ahead bit - Vista needs a lot more performance to run well. We’re talking an ideal minimum of a dual core processor and 1GB RAM.
So instead of cutting corners now and having a slow machine with Vista, spend that extra 10 or 20% for a PC with an Intel Core 2 Duo and 1GB of RAM - you’ll thank me next year!
