# 06:00 Content: Buying a New Computer on a Budget.
~~ 3 signs you need a new computer.
1. Bootup Issues.
2. The system grinds away.
3. Your computer will not handle Windows XP or certain software applications.
~~ Should I buy a laptop or a desktop?
1. Compare size vs. portability.
2. Determine how much power and memory you need.
3. Factor in the price.
4. Evaluate upgradeability and repair options.
~~ 7 things to look for in a new desktop PC.
1. The Microprocessor.
2. The Operating System.
3. Random Access Memory.
4. Hard Drive.
5. Video Card.
6. The Monitor.
~~ 7 tips for getting the laptop you need.
1. Know your needs.
2. Choose your speed from a multitude of multiprocessors.
Pentium 4: This is a desktop chip. It’s powerful and power-hungry and runs hot.
Pentium 4-M: These are less powerful than their desktop brothers. But they are better with batteries, and the computers are not as heavy.
Pentium M: These run slower than the 4, but they are just about as powerful.
Athlon XP-M: Advanced Micro Devices answer to the Pentium. This is a good chip, and is usually cheap.
Athlon 64: This is a top of the line chip from AMD. 64-bit based software but runs 32. This chip is extremely fast.
Celeron and Celeron M: The budget chip from Intel. This is not as fast as the Pentiums or the AMD chips.
Transmeta: These are used by a few Japanese manufacturers. Transmeta chips are on the slow side.
3. If you travel a lot, invest in a wireless-equipped laptop.
4. Random Access Memory.
5. Hard Drive.
6. Video Card.
7. Accessories.
