So today I found out that the sound card in my poor compaq presario laptop is bad. And some guy told me it was attached to the system board. I asked him to translate and he told me that I would have to either deal with the music and video skipping, or get a new laptop. I’m going with the second suggestion, but keeping my old one for downloading music and saving videos and such. and it won’t matter that it skips or is slow!
So I need help picking a new computer. I don’t know much about computers, but I want one with more memory than my old one. I want it wifi ready. And I want either Mac or Windows. (no linux! I don’t really have a problem with linux, I’ve just never used it before!)
The only programs I plan on putting on it are DivX, Microsoft Office, and an antivirus program of some sort, but I want it to run just as well after I install those as it did before.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a computer that fits all of these categories, but doesn’t cost a lot?
I’d like suggestions from experience preferably, eg “I bought this computer…….”
However, if you are just a computer genius and can tell from the specs how well a computer will run, feel free to tell me so!
THANKS SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!
