I would get a Pentium Duo Core (At least 1.8Ghz), about 1GB of RAM, 80GB Hard Drive (Preferably 7200RPM) DVD-R, and a 15.4 Truebrite Widescreen display.\n\nBut that's just me.

That really depends on several factors like:  what you will use it for, your budget, and your level of computer expertise.  \n\nIf you have enough technical savvy, there is no "best brand".\nAfter a while, most folks figure out a thing or two about their computers and begin to upgrade/modify parts themselves.  Performance is what matters, and brand loyalty takes a back seat.\n\nBut assuming you're not at that point yet, you have several options...\n\nYou could try Dell.  Their computers are fairly inexpensive and will get the job done for most purposes.  Their computers also tend to be loaded with a lot of extra unnecessary software.  Their customer support is also outsourced overseas, so be prepared to be treated like an 11-year old if you ever call and need help. (that could be a good or bad thing depending on how you see things)  \n\nYou could try Apple.  If you're not bothered by what Operating System you use, they offer good computers with good customer support.  They tend to be pricier though.  You'll also have a smaller selection of software and hardware to choose from.\n\nIf you know exactly what you want try alienware.com or newegg.com  These online venders aren't the lowest priced out there, but they have a good reputation and will offer you a solid deal.\n\nAlso, after you've bought your computer and begin to tinker/upgrade your computer, try pricewatch.com  It's a good spot to get components without paying premium prices.

Have your tried eBay?

Yes you could, but my guess is that it would only be useful for a little range of applications such as word processing, spreadsheets and few games.\n\nIf you need it for other uses such as decent web browsing, and more complex applications my advise is for you te get a better one at least $500 in value.\n\nUnless of course, someone is selling a fine computer almost as a give-away.\n\npls give more details, if you want further advise.

Boz - I wouldn't.  I know everyone wants to be the first to have one or to resale on ebay (I heard they were going to pull them all from ebay earlier).  I have lived through pet rocks, cabbage patch kid dolls, tickets to New Kids on the Block and Windows 95...its taught me patience is indeed a virtue...and warmer and more comfortable too.

I know a couple people making a decent 2nd income on e-bay one lady does a lot of yardsales and flea markets then resells on ebay another man I know buys wholesale and sell's new stuff on e-bay. they both do well. I do custom computer builds and repair on the side and have sold some of my old parts on ebay as well the trick to e-bay is be honest be fair and be profitable. lol You would also be able to be at home doing that as well..

Think about a booth in a local flea market, or swap meet.  I have seen guys who have set up a little retail business selling new, custom built computers.  The overhead is cheap. Also, you could keep your inventory in your car and sell to your techno geek friends at coffee houses, etc.  I know a guy who literally had a "satchel full of blues," Cd's that he had left over after his music store failed.  He would sell them to his friends at restaurants and coffee houses.

ok you want to buy a computer from the same guys that sell bags of dirt? There is a reason they carry eMachines and not IBM's.
