Now a days it’s simple to find and replace your office or home with a new chic inexpensive desktop.The first desktop computer is by Dell, it’s called the Dell GX270 desktop and is equipped with 2GB of RAM, 250GB of hard drive memory, and eight usb ports (two in front and six in rear). The Dell GX270 holds more than enough space to hold music files, pictures, and videos, it also comes with a dvd burner that not only burns cd’s and dvd’s but plays them as well. This computer comes with the operating system ran by Windows XP and easy to operate with other software programs that are compatible. Some of the negatives with this desktop, however, is that sometimes the computer will freeze and you have to reboot it in order to have full active functions again, but other than that this desktop is great.

The second desktop that’s nice is by Compaq, it’s the Presario SR5648F, this desktop includes a six USB ports drive, DVD drive, 3.0GB of memory, and a hard drive memory of 320GB. This is a pretty basic desktop that operates off of windows vista, it’s great for your everyday needs such as typing documents, downloading programs and software, storing files and pictures, playing cd’s and dvd’s. The only bad thing about this desktop is the amount of space that’s given to you to use for your media files, if your looking for plenty of storage for videos or any type of media this desktop is definitely not for you, but if your looking for an operating system that can give you unlimited presentation with documents, spreadsheets, and great researching tools for the internet then this is a winner.

The same thing goes for this last desktop I’m introducing to you, it’s by Hewlett Packard, called the HP Pavilion Slimline. The HP Slimline has everything the Compaq Presario has but is built to handle more demanding applications such as digital video due to the 64×2 based processor that’s installed into the modem for a more fast hard working machine. The Slimline is also petite in size to alot for more desk space and less cable clutter to deal with. HP bult this desktop for web browsing needs, so it is looked upon as a home computer more so than an office computer, but remember that this doesn’t mean it’s not capable of handling your everyday office needs such as using programs in Powerpoint, Quickbooks, Spreadsheets, etc.

There are many places to choose from when buying a desktop but you want to have great quality and function for a small price. The price of the Dell GX270 is $249.95 and price of the HP Pavilion Slimline is $299.99, these both can be be found and purchased through the secure website www.buy.com. The Compaq Presario SR5648F has a low price of $319.99 and can be found at www.circuitcity.com, I really hope this has been helpful in regards to shopping for great desktops at low prices, good luck!

The Hewlett-Packard, or HP, desktop computer has been around for a very long time. HP not only manufactures and sells desktop computers, but they also offer laptops and tablet PCs as well. HP does not operate by itself either, as Compaq is also a part of HP, selling the same kind of items.

For the desktop PCs, Hp offers four basic designs. The Everyday Computing PC which is the most reliable PC in the line. It is manufactured in HP’s classic design and goes for about $299.99 brand new. The Slim and Sleek HP is a space saving computer, designed to deliver maximum performance in the smallest space possible. This design goes for about $299.99 as well. The next in line is the best when it comes to performance in any of the HP desktop PCs. It is called the HP High Performance, and is loaded with the latest technological equipment available on the market, and is always expandable. What that means is that if something newer, bigger, or better comes along in the way of hardware, this PC is upgradeable. This maximum performance PC costs about $599.99 new. The last in the line of desktop PCs is the newest in the HP line. It is called the All in One PC. That is because the screen is a touch screen monitor that can do just about anything. It is all-inclusive, with instant access to movies, photos, the internet and a whole range of other activities. This PC runs for about 4799.99 brand new.

All of these HP desktop models can be bought on HP’s official website. Ordering is secure, and shipping is fast. All of these models can also be found in just about any Best Buy stores, or online. Also, if the new prices are not within your price range, you can find most of the above mentioned HP models on EBay.com, and on some other online second hand sites.
