What type of desktop should I buy?

<p>Get some people that speak L337 :). They're the best!</p>

<p>what do you mean by that?</p>

<p>"what do you mean by that?"</p>

<p>Computer science, physics, and math majors.</p>

<p>get an Alienware one! They have some for cheap. Otherwise I can sell you my crappy old- er, i mean brand spanking new Pentium 0.1 laptop, complete with charger (only weighs 5 kilograms) and (slightly dirty) trackball mouse!</p>

<p>All for only $999!</p>

<p>alienware is for gaming and gaming excessively neither which is really that healthy on computers. </p>

<p>your primary goal in college is academics hopefully and u don't want to become a computer addict playing cs in college</p>

<p>Best way to kill time. :)</p>

<p>Alienware makes overpriced junkmobiles. If you are that serious about gaming, you either have to look at a smaller vendor or building it yourself.</p>

<p>Yeah, alienware is just overpriced. You can get something better by just building it yourself. Buy athlon xp too for a processor, they're damn good deals(although they may break if you're not careful at installing it).</p>

<p>most people here are telling you here to get a pc for games if anything</p>

<p>me and several others on thsi board said to look into the imac mini for all you needs and great bang for the buck</p>

<p>build your own...
AMD 64 3000+ (or maybe even higher)
DDR Ram (at least 512)</p>

<p>order from Newegg.com (great shipping and quality)</p>
