If you are a newbie don't go to a large chain (in Engalnd PC World or Currys), the sales droids get minimal training in hardware and are often on a bonus scheme for selling extended warranties / insurance.
Go to a small local dealer, the staff are far more likely to know what their talking about. Tell them what you want to use it for and you will end up with a system more suitable for your needs. Be careful though there are a lot of cowboys out there, if you are unsure:
- ask how long they've been operating (more than 2 years better),
- satisfied customers? Contact them to make sure the names are genuine
- if after that your still unsure go somewhere else, a bargain system is no good if it doesn't work properly.
Of course if you are experienced, goto to a big chain just for the amusement value. Quote "A MB is half the size of a GB."
PS the above applies equally to cookers, washing machines, dishwashers & microwaves .
