I'm looking at a new PC for home, but don't want to dump a fortune on it. Is a Celeron processor any good or should I bite the bullet and get the Pentium machine? There is a substantial increase in the Celeron units to the Pentium ones. I've been pricing a few on Dell.com today.
Also, what do you think a person should get (like sizes of memory and speeds etc.) for a home computer to do basic word processing, internet (high speed via a wireless router) and letting the kids play some games on there. I don't want to go overboard, but I don't want something that doesn't work either (got that already...).
Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday.
What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures.
Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
