I am buying a new computer some time next week, and I am not sure what brand to purchase. I had a Dell which was stolen about 6 weeks ago. I loved the computer but someone said I can probably get another brand that works the same, same features but less expensive. I am purchasing a no frills computer just basic stuff. What do you guys use? Do you think a Dell is the best way to go?

Hi Venshida, I am a computer technician with two degrees in computer technology. Really the brand name is not really an issue these days. All the internal parts for all the brands are made by a hand full of manufacturers. I personally in my business custom make computers. I have read a lot of people's online comments that having one custom built is best. For example, with my customers (being in a small town) I know them all personally and take the time to ask what exactly they need the computer to do. If they dont use the computer for anything but checking email to stay in touch with the family, I dont install an expensive video card or speakers with woofers etc. If however they do video editing, naturally a lot of RAM and a strong video card are required. You might want to look for a reliable system builder in your area. You can tell them what you do need and they can provide it without putting in all the bells and whistles that you wont need.

I live in India and here in India most of the people purchase different parts of computer of different companies so that the computer works properly even i computer is very old.In India the best motherboard company is Intel so everyone purchases Intel motherboard.In monitors,LG is the best company and all other external parts is purchased having the trademark of perx or any other good company which provides good product at low cost.
