Analyze your needs when buying a computer. Rather than buying on price or gimmicks such as microprocessor speed or software packages you'll never use, you should buy your system depending on what you actually intend to use your computer for, both now and what you might wish to do in the future.
Misinformation is the norm, even for most of the name-brand vendors.
Unless you intend to replace your computer every three months, it makes more sense to buy one that can be upgraded easily with no resource limitations. And if you only intend to use your computer for internet cruising, writing letters or day trading, you don't need to go nuts with 800 Mhz processors as these companies might want you to believe. Remember that a computer can only run as fast as the weakest bottleneck, and on the internet, all computers are limited to the speed of the phone wires that connect to your computer. Different processors, such as the Pentium, Pentium II and III, Celeron, AMD-K6, Athlon, and Cirrus, among others, all have their own strong and weak points. EDS specializes in building you a system depending on your needs, and not on simply how much you want to spend.
