    more computer than you will EVER need!

    is hwat the salesman told me as i bought my last HP.

    1.6ghz
    512mb ram
    200gig hdd



    MY ASS!

    last night i was doing some shit, next thing you know it started running seriously slow .... i went to open my ftp program and POP the pc shut off on its own.

    prolly some sort of a system overload or something, i had a lot of shit running.

            guess you learned your lesson not to buy a HP, or let a salesman who is paid spiffs and commision tell you what pc to buy.

            Kinda like going to the car dealer and letting them sell you a used car when you wanted a brand new one.

              HP can't upgrade, why would you even think about buying it?

              Second, as a webmaster, why are you buying a non-custom built box? We tear apart computers built for the common user.

                When I was a kid in the computer store my dad was looking at computers. The guy working at the store was bragging about his 2 GB hard drive and said he would never be able to use that much.

                            I remember thinking the 1 gig hard drive I had just paid $700 for at a trade show was the greatest thing since hot pussy. So much that I went back and bought a second one.

                              Did he tell you the difference between the p4 and the celaron processor, then lean over and say they are about the same?

                                  i didnt know HP doesnt upgrade, i just wanted the top of the line back then ... and got it. it was a extreme jump from my 466mhz e-machines lol

                                  and why is a factory box not good for you? in my 2yrs of doing this shit, this was the only time i have ever had a problem. the pc usually stays running for weeks streight, then i reboot and its right back up.

                                  id like to get a dual processor job, but i heard that you then need software that makes use of it?

                                      What do you guys do that you need serious hardware? I remember shelling out "big" dollars to keep ahead of Autocad but for websites I never push my machine.
