    Default WTB Computer

    Need a new PC for my office. No laptops. I'm working on a HP all in one and I'm tired of it crashing. Looking for something with newer intel i chip, 8-16gb RAM, 1TB (ssd or hybrid would be nice but not a deal breaker) , wireless, Bluetooth. Doesnt have to be touchscreen or all in one.


    Anyone got anything that's not going to break the bank?

    Thanks, we have talked.

    I brought my iMac into work to use until I get something nicer here.

    Andy, my buddy Dave owns a small computer shop in Mount Clements called Power Computers. He specializes in taking Dell computers and other big box brands, cleaning all the pre-installed crap out of them, and making them run good. He used to build them from scratch, but that actually costs more now and there isn't as much to gain from it unless you are a gamer or something. I actually bought my current desktop from them - it is a Dell that they bought new, wiped, and rebuilt - I think I paid $300 for it and I haven't had a single problem with it.

    A guy Paul is there and answers the phone and works the counter. I think there is a weekend guy you might get but I don't know his name. Dave is the computer guru if you want to get specific with questions though.

    Dave or Paul - Power Computers - 586-790-3200.

    I don’t have a powerful enough laptop to run this. Next machine that comes through I’m grabbing. Laptop or desktop.
