    When was the last time you bought a new PC

    well for me its over 12 months the things are just so good now I cant see the point we have 4 PC's and 2 laptops here in the office and normaly I buy every 12 months but the new ones are not that much better anymore so maybe its every 2 years now.

      We upgraded two older ones in the last few months with new motherboards, new processors, new hard drives, new OS and more RAM and video cards that handle two monitors. All the other parts were recycled from the previous boxes.

      New machines are nice but unless you need to write them off for tax purposes it seems a bit pointless.

              too long ago lol

              i think what im gonna start doing is just buying a new PC/laptop (or doing alot of upgrades on them) every year with my tax refund. (since they're tax deductable anyways)

                                      I built a top of the line computer last July which costed me $4600. I think that I'll probably build another one towards the end of this year.

                                      As far as my laptop, it's almost a year old now. I don't spend a lot of time on it, so it'll probably hold me over for another year.

                                          this machine is a year and two months old.
                                          last weekend I had to put a new hard drive in it.
                                          no more factory garbage, next time I will build my own.

                                            There isn't much improvement in performance on the horizon and until it gets to say 30% over what I have now I won't buy a new motherboard or CPU.

                                            My last big upgrade was to go all SATA drives, and that was a nice improvement.

                                            I may buy a Mac Mini to screw around with as I think it's and interesting idea (computer as cheap disposable appliance), but it's hard for me to take Apple seriously in terms of performance.

                                                      I built a new machine in December, spent a month trying to convince them that the motherboard was bad, so really, I haven't even had it "working" for a month. Didn't think upgrading from a P4 2.4 to a P4 3.6 would make such a difference in speed, but boy did it. Unfortunately I can't overclock it, it runs way too hot as is. The newest chipsets are just too hot.

                                                        I got a new Dell lappy 2 weeks ago. Now I'm thinking about a new desktop build.

Asus K8V SE Deleuxe MB, Athlon 64 3400+, gig of DDR ram, ATI x800 Pro, Serial ATA, Aspire 520 watt PS, Promise SATA Raid chip and Via SATA Raid built into the southbridge, built in gigabit networking, 6.1 surround sound, you name it, this Mobo has it.

                                                                          $1180 including shipping. This beast is fast!
