Tam, today I bought a Dell computer to my girlfriend, hope she likes the gift
Btw, I paid US$ 1423 for it - without printer, DVDROM and CD-RW.
Its 20GB HD, 600MHz P3, 2 USB ports, 17" monitor, 3com 10/100 Ethernet, Sound Blaster Live! Value 512V, Microsoft® Intellimouse®, 64 MB RAM. Like I said, NO dvd, printer and CD-RW.
Hell, my income is in US$ like any other webmaster.. why I have to pay a lot more for eletronics and computer stuff ?
I think I'll buy a laptop for me next weeks, since my Girlfriend lives 1900 away from me and I travel to there twice per year, and we travel together here in my state twice per year (but 1 month each, better). I have to work these days. Notebooks here are FUCKING EXPENSIVE! When I see the price I say GO FUCK YOURSELF, hehe. Well, I'll teach my GF for she work with me using her new Dell system, hehe.
I'll buy a digital photo cam too. Here is USD$ 420 (some stores sell it for US$ 750 !!!), while in US its only $270. My dream digital cam costs US$ 1300 here - but only US$ 750 in US. FUCKKKKKKKKKKKK ! I can pay $750, but not $1300.
BTW, TAM, CONGRATS FOR YOUR NEW COMPUTER ! IT REALLY ROCKS !
