Question New Computer Selection
Need advice on purchasing new computer. My Gateway is 10 years old, running Windows 98. I use for e-mail, letters and some gaming. Not being computer literate, what do you recommend as minimum speed, memory, ports, etc.? Best Buy suggests Gateway desktop with Pentium Dual-Core processor E5200 for $509. Understand that Gateway has been sold to some other manufacturer. Should I look at HP "deals" from Office Depot? Any suggestions sincerely appreciated.
