Re: Need Suggestions
If you want built to order with quality and price, Dell is tough to beat right now. Amazing deals on both desktops and notebooks.
Proprietary parts are largely a non-issue. Dell has a good warranty and ships replacements with easy to follow instructions should something break. Most of the things you might actually want to upgrade before the computer is retired are indeed standard (hard drivers, ram, etc).
In most cases a computer is largely disposable these days at the current price points. By the time something breaks, you will usually be craving newer technology, and on the low end it's just not a huge investment.
I part out some computers, most get put to some kind of service though. I have some that have become linux boxes. Next PC I have with decent horsepower that I reply will likely become a media server.
If Dell isn't your thing and you truly want custom, go to Newegg.com.
