I want to buy a computer that isn’t $1,000 like an apple. I found a computer on www.bestbuy.com and fell in love with it. But I’m not sure if it’s a good buy.
The computer is the Asus- Eee PC Netbook with Intel Celeron Processor. It’s raiting is a 4.0 (I think…). I wrote down everything about it so when I get to best buy I can automaticly know what I’m getting and won’t get jipped.
The product features are:
-Intel Celeron processor with 900MHz processor speed
-16GB solid-state disk hard drive; shock proof deign
-1GB DDR2 memory for multitasking power
-NOTE: OPTICAL DRIVE NOT INCLUDED (<– Do I need that??)
-8.9″ WSVGA TFT-LCD widescreen display with 1024 x 600 resolution
-Intel GMA graphics with shared video memory
-Built-in 1.3MP webcam and microphone make it easy to video chat with, send video mail to or videoconfrence with friends, family or co-workers
-Built-in 3-in-1media reader supports Secure Digital, Secure Digital High Capcity and MultiMediaCard
-3 high-speed USB 2.0 ports for fast digital video, adio and data transfer
-Built-in high speed wireless LAN (802.11 b/g); 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet LAN (with RJ-45 connector)
-Weighs only 2.2 lbs. and measures just 0.8″ thin for lightweight portability; lithium-ion battery
-Styleish black case finish
-Microsoft Windows XP Home eddition operating system pre-installed; softeware package incuded with Microsoft Works and Windows Live.

I don’t know what half of that stuff is. If any of you do have this computer (or HAD this computer) please tell me some upgrades.
I was planning on using this mostly on writing stories, the internet (youtube, aim, etc.). So I was looking in “What computer is right for you?” and this was the one that appealed to me in internet and e-mail

Just wondering if this computer, could run Crysis on its highest setting.?

Sims 3 is my computer compatible?

admin — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 17:39:33 +0000

I just bought a gateway NV5207u below are the specs.
I want to buy the Sims 3 for it .I want to be sure before I buy since you cannot return it once it has been opened.I tried posting this on the forums on the Sims 3 website,unless you own the game and have a serial code you cannot post on the forums.The system requirements section on the website does not list what it needs to run on windows 7 .I’m hoping to find someone on here that has some experience with the game and windows 7.I will also link the system requirements part of the website for the game.
