 |
|
I"m goin back in May 2008. Is it worth buying a desktop before I go and bring it back with me or should I just purchase it in the states, with dell most likely.
How much do u think I'll really save?
cause you can get a pretty good deal with Dell, which comes with a monitor.
I want the latest computer that a 1000 dollars will get me. That's monitor included. so I guess around 700 for the desktop. hold out for dell or korea? |

Desktops, buy in Korea.
Notebooks, buy overseas.
Some prices from a good store:
www.icoda.co.kr
www.dell.co.kr |

CAD $800 will get you into a quad-core computer system and you can get LCD monitors for less than $200.
Pricing is similar and it saves you dragging it back to Korea. Just remember to bring a copy of English windows (your favorite flavor - XP, VISTA) with you. |

depends. Do you want a gaming/video editing comp? Or, just a run-of-the-mill everyday PC?
Some top end stuff cannot be found here. |
