				I was reading up on the barebone stuff and it seems like you get more for your money, as far as hardware is concerned.  The optimist in me says it's similar (ok, not the same, but theoretically...) like buying furniture and putting the pieces together.  I get that I'm grossly oversimplifying, but I'm wondering if that's the general concept. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/ca...lc.asp?CatId=31 (for reference) I'm looking into getting something different, something more graphic saavy as my computer is going on 5 years now and since my son needs a new computer, I figure why not buy a new one for me and give him my old system. Yes, I am a mean mom. haha |
