These guides should be referred to as needed, however I would
recommend reading all of them first.
Each guide explains the common ways each component of a computer
is sold and will provide you with a solid understanding of
terminology and typical specifications.

You will notice a page
updated counter on every page of this website. This will let
you know when I have last updated the site and the content is
current.
Why did I make this site?
I have been asked a surprising
number of times about buying a computer :
"What should I look
for when buying a computer ?"
"What is the best computer
setup ?"
or regarding Laptops
:
"Who makes better laptops, Dell or HP
?" "What is the best laptop out
there"
"How can i choose a laptop from all of the
choices"
These are all great questions, and
considering the importance of the computer, it is remarkable how
little people really know when they make such an expensive purchase
that has such an impact on their life.
I assumed people like me would
Google what they needed to know. It became clear that as soon as I
started trying to answer questions, I began to see blank stares and
it became apparent there was an information void that needed
filling.
The laptop buying guide is only necessary if you are purchasing a laptop.
The desktop computer buying guide for people purchasing both desktop PC's and Laptops.
The research guide will tell you how to make the most out of your money and is the most important guide on this site.
