Hey guys, I'm at the point right now where I have to start getting my stuff together for university, next year. Why I am doing this right now you may ask, well because I will be living on campus in Ottowa which is basically in another city (for you users who may not know). So I have alot of stuff to buy. A friend of mine introduced me to this store called ETC Computers. The store componets as well as very well priced pre-built computers with the option to customize them. Another friend of mine bought a computer from there Pentium D, and its great for $700 (specs im not to sure about). Anyways I'm going to need to get a new computer for uni. I know I have my new computer (In my sig). I paid over 2 gran to build the system alone (myslef) + another $1800 for the monitor. So I'm not going to bring it with me, I'm going to be in redience. Im going to be sharing a room with someone esle until I can switch into a single dorm. So I dont want to bring it with me and have someone steal it or my roommate to ruin it. I'd rather have my brother and sister use it, get the moneys worth out of it and have them break it.
Now down to business. I was shopping around on there site and I found an affordable system for 294 dollars before taxes. Now I cant build a system with that money. So thats why Im looking into it. Now I was hoping to get some opinions on it.
