I haven't bought a new computer in years and need some advice. I went to a local computer shop and they gave me a quote on a computer. i told them i wanted to burn dvds and record stuff from tv onto my hard drive.
they gave me these specs...
AMD 2600+ Processor
512 MB DDR Memory 2700 speed
200 GB HArd drive
52x CDRW/ DVD ROM combo
4x DVD+-RW Sony DW U14a
1.4mb floppy
Shuttle AMD Main board with sound/ethernet
128 mb agp video card
TV tuner card
56k modem
tower case
windows xp home
keyboard, mouse and speakers
17" CRT monitor
All for $1100. Does this sound like a good deal? If i didnt put a brand name by the item, it means i don't know what the brand is. are some of these computer stores selling crappy generic stuff or is it all the same? I really want a good tv tuner card because i want high quality recordings and good software so i can schedule when to record tv shows.
any help you could give me i would appreciate.
thanks...
jon
