Where can someone buy a new computer tower in the villages? Is there anyone we can trust?

Best Buy and Sam's are likely sources.

I bought a Windows 8, and DO NOT like it. I heard Windows 10 is coming out and is much better. I agree by an iMac, but if you really want Windows, wait until Windows 10 comes out. In terms of places to buy, I buy me electronics from Best Buy up on 441.

If you're still suffering with the usability of Windows 8 and haven't already tried it (or something similar) you might give the "Classic Shell" tool a try. It's free and restores the old Start Menu that went away with Windows 8.

I just bought an HP 19" all in one computer at Walmart for $349, they also had an HP 23" all in one for $579. When I went over to Best Buy they wanted $679 for the same 23" system. The 19" all in one wasn't wireless but I got a Logitech ergo wireless keyboard and mouse for $60. So for a total of $410 I have a wireless 19" HP system.

I know you only wanted a tower, but sometimes the complete system is cheaper. I also didn't care for Windows 8, but I've been adjusting it all week. You can get rid of that 'start menu' by right click on the black bar on the bottom and select taskbar. Go to properties and you can select what you see when the computer starts up, mine goes right to desktop like in the past. One thing I couldn't disable was the logon when the computer starts, but I was able to make it accept just a 4 digit code.
