If Dell has gone under now, what is the best company to get a computer from?

If you're set on buying a name brand pre-built PC, Dell is still probably the best choice.\n\nYou may want to consider looking in your newspaper or around town to see if there are any small shops that do custom computer builds.  You'll often find it cheaper to have the parts purchased individually and then built together by someone not part of a big business.  Good luck!

Your best deals will be through major manufactures for pricing, they have the infrastructure and service techs to handle nationwide issues ... i would suggest contacting Gateway, Dell, Toshiba and Compact/HP .. you will want to have a consistent and reliable line ... smaller companies tend to have offbrands of questionable reliability and limited servicability .. the major companies will do onsite service and can ship major parts overnight if necessary.   Smaller comapnies tend to require shipping the unit to their plant for service which most customers find annoying.

DELL becuase there the most common type.there easier to fix and cost less to fix. i had an HP they breakdown so fast.and they charged me 100 dollars for help on the phone and all they told me was that i needed a new mother board and to take to a computer dealler to fix it. DELL offers free help support and they sell their parts cheap (not that youlll ever need them) recovering DELL computers takes no professional person.it take s40 minutes and DELL works GREAT i had mine for 5 years and still works great.my HP computer broke down in 1 year.

Dell or PC World... if you do go to PC World, the advent ones are cheap and cheerful... don't let them talk you into buying anything else for it though (unless its a bag and you want one)!!

My best suggestion is look in the local newspapers.  If that fails log on to e-bay and pray.  You never know what piece of crap you might get out of a used computer.  The only thing I will advise is don't fall for one of those Dell "cheapies".  If you want a question answered, unless you can understand Indian, and I don't mean a tribe in America, like American Native, I mean like the country of India. don't get the Dell.  Been there done that.  Now I own a Gateway and have no problems communicating with the technicians, they all speak English.

Dell PC's are pretty good.  There tech support 2 years ago was top of the line.  If you are looking for a new computer they are all pretty much the same what you need to look for is who has the best Tech support.  I like HP tech support since it is based in the US and not in the 3rd world countries and it is pretty good.  They can build a computer to your specs too.

Yes, I think Dells are the best by far. I'd love to have one of those new Dell XPS.

After owning many brands, I will not own anything but a Dell.  I have had problems with all the other brands.  Dell provides excellent service and the computers are excellent.  Also, you can get your  computer made the way you want it.

a company called emachines is great at selling cheap computers, also Dell has great customer support for PCs in the $300 range.

If you know what you are looking for you can go to www.compusaauctions.com \n\nIf you aren't that  computer savy you could just go to Dell.  They have good computers.

I have had good luck with Dell laptops, and they have easy payment plans and good pricing but I can suggest a couple of other links too for looking at laptops.

HP by a long shot.  Dell has had some very serious problems with their customer (dis)service recently.\n\nWhen you are ready to buy a new system, go to www.stupidcheapcomputers.net.  I buy all of my stuff from them, and everything is Vista ready.\n\nMicrosoft is about to release its latest operating system, Vista, in January.  It’s going to make all of these “bargain” computers nothing but JUNK as soon as it’s released.  The reason that you are seeing so many cheap systems on the market right now is because a lot of them CAN’T RUN Vista and the merchants are trying to dump them as hard and fast as they can before Vista shows up and everyone learns what a piece of crap they were sold for $500 (or whatever).\n\nAnyway, I bought a complete, new system from stupidcheapcomputers.net with a warranty for LESS than it would cost me to build it myself or order a custom one from the manufacturer.  You can use my frequent buyer code: ATX926.  That will get an additional 10% discount at checkout.\n\nI have NEVER had any problems with anything that they have sold me and their customer service is outstanding.  Those guys blow my mind.\n\nGood luck!
