I'm not even sure what that's supposed to mean. I do not own any livestock.

Brown, I was told to stay away from Acer and Asus, but that was when I was laptop shopping. Take that FWIW.

there was an OT laptop thread with a bunch of stats that had ASUS as the best buy


with laptops, you worry about build quality, which makes branding important


for a desktop, brand seems way less relevant

What are you looking to use the PC for? UMD graphics scare me.

Then it should be fine, just don't get any ideas about playing games on high settings. My old laptop had 4 gigabytes of UMD "graphics memory" but it couldn't really handle 1080p shows/movies without slowing the whole OS down.

My 2 cents...

That i5-2320 is a quad core 3.0 Ghz. $190 on newegg alone. 8GB of Memory, +windows 7 home premium, plus 1TB HDD...all that by itself will push you right at $500. Still haven't touched a motherboard, DVD drive, and a case. So, trying to build this PC for 500 would be very difficult.

I think this is a good buy. I'd recommend it to family that make me work on their PCs when they break...and I hate working on PCs.

Thanks for the input.

Now I just need to decide if i want a laptop with dock, or new desktop. Leaning toward desktop since I have an Ipad that covers everything i would use a laptop for.

A laptop has its purpose. But if you don't need a laptop, a desktop has much more flexibility for upgrades and replacing parts. To me, unless you need the laptop for a specific purpose, a desktop is the way to go.

No real need for a laptop if you have an ipad.
