New desktop computer....any advice?

(1/16) > >>

Mr Tees!!:
...hey Gang! I have always just used whatever laptop I had for graphic work and such, mainly because I could carry it home every night. We feel our new location is a bit more secure, and I am thinking of getting a tower for this. I havent had to shop for a computer in a long while, so what should I even be looking for? Mainly for the standard Corel and Adobe suites, and web of course. I know they will need to be wireless, but I think thats pretty much standard nowadays. NO MACS (::))...

....anyone got any advice, or know of a good one that I can get at Staples or Best Buy or somethin'? I KNOW some of you compu-geeks on here follow this stuff...... 8)

...Thanks All!!!!

I don't know how to stress this enough and make you a believer. . .  Go to itxchange.com and find a Thinkstation.  something like this:

get some more RAM and buy a copy of windows 7 pro. All together about $500.

they seem to be out of grade A or open box right now, but keep looking. For about $750 you can have and open box system that is probably close to $3k new.
