Re: F... Bill Gates...

I have a love hate relation with computers. I just purchased a new computer system for my office and I have no clue how to use all the stuff installed on them. I just took the spec sheet from our home office and gave it to a customer who does business computers systems and told him to get me what was needed. His first price was almost $11,000 then I sat him down and got him to about half that price. He said its a basic office system but I still get lost.

holy shit

half of that could build you one hell of a machine capable of doing anything you wanted

5500 would get you a computer that could do some serious crunching, decoding, etc and a 50 inch TV to use as a monitor
