I suck (and not...), I truly do.
I currently have an HP and would never get one again. Not only does it break down every six months, but the repair dude told me that HP makes their computers so that only their components fit them, and their components cost more. Do you know if Compaq is the same?
I do plan to buy instore.
Thanks again!

I really need a sub-remedial class in computers. I know just enough to know I am woefully ignorant. Most of the time, I don't even understand the "easy" instructions! :D

Oh, and mine was about $1500 US for everything.
