Hi All,
I am interested in the new Dell Inspiron 530 desktop computer.
I chose this for a number of reasons, but the choices available seem to be quite numerous and offer greater flexibility.
.
My interest is in the IntelCore 2Quad processor Q8200 4MBL2, 2.33GHz 1333FSB with 8GB dual channel DDR2 SD ram @ 800 Mhz. 500 Gb hard drive. I would be going with the Dell recommended audio and video package and Windows Home and Student Office.
Is there a better combination than what I have in mind? The computer will be for general use, some graphic, data processing and usual the internet work.
Current computer is a 6 year old HP Pavilion laptop ze5383US that has been pretty much trouble free, with 2.66GHz P4, 1GB Ram and 60 GB hard drive - with the usual trappings.
The new one I have in mind will probably be the last computer I will need to buy (am retired and $'s are short) and would like to cover all the bases.
Anything to look out for or be aware of before placing an order?
Thanks in advance for any comments
