Your Computer

[Malice]

If you were given $5000 for a new computer or at least computer equipment, what would you buy?

 

[Da Docta]

Another G5.

 

[Ronny Shade]

^What he said without "another"

 

[black_dust]

$5000? that thing better be able to go back in time for that much!

 

[Ronny Shade]

Actually here's what I'd do:

Buy a camera ~$2-3000
Final Cut
Photoshop
After FX
And a Powerbook

 

[Leto Atrides]

Get the best laptop I can get for $2500-3000, then get a good sized monitor and sound system to dock it into at home.

 

[Malice]

I would probably get myself a good External Hard Drive setup with mirrored drives.

I would get myself a nice 1000 firewall for play purposes...then a HUGE desktop

Do you honestly know how much Hype has now and how much you could get for 5000?

Aside from a very good computer, which can be had for about $2,000, I'd really like a colour laser printer.

 

[Addendum]

If you were given $5000 for a new computer or at least computer equipment, what would you buy?

Alienware: Aurora mALX Notebook

Edit: And if there was a method of obtaining another $1000 from the person who gave me the original $5000, then instead of a laptop I'd get an Aurora ALX

$5000 WOULD GO A LONG WAY TOWARD IMPROVING THIS SITE. I KNOW THEY JUST DID THE "UPGRADE", BUT SOMETHING IS STILL OFF ABOUT IT.

[Son Of Logan]

A really kick ass PC and multiple CD/DVD burners and etchers.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

I'd buy a $500 computer and register for $4500 worth of online porn sites.....

 

[Dodger]

G5 of course, final cut pro, pro tools, and photoshop and myabe a digi 002. I think with a student account it would be under 5g's.....i think.

I would save up the rest until I could buy an Alienware.

 

[jaguarr]

I'd wait until this fall when the PowerMac replacements with the dual-core Intel chips in them are released on the market.
