    thanks for telling us karrmann, we're thrilled.

    its pentium not pentuum and its norton anti virus not nortons

    Seeing as you're buying from gateway, you're obviously paying alot of money for an average spec, why dont you do it the smart way and build one yourself.

    why do you call it a cpu? The cpu is just a part of the whole computer.

    More proof of how stupid this guy is...
    Since I like computers and take them seriously, it's pathetic and insulting that he calls the whole computer a CPU, which is just the Central Processing Unit.
    And yes custom-building a computer is much easier and cheaper. You just buy the components needed. For example, I just upgraded my computer but the case is old and one would asume the computer is crap until they see the inside components. The only things I needed to upgrade were the motherboard, CPU, memory and power source and overall it did come cheaper because I already had a good video card, sound card, network card, speakers, monitor, etc.
    Plus, by buying from those companies, you don't necessarly get the best quality. Usually, they have crappy video cards, motherboards and memory.

    EDIT: Technical support? What you're gonna call them because suddenly the computer doesn't turn on, only to find out that the guy told you to check that the power cord is plugged but you never bothered to check?

    c'mon, Gateway seemed the best for me, I can get a new hard drive and mamory for it cause we are getting a four stick copacity, I know how to get in there and change the sticks and crap so if there is something I don't like I can replace it.

    There is a mb/gb capacity for the ram, its not just how many spaces you have open that you can keep adding stuff.
