I Know this probably going to sound stupid to all you guys but I am planning on buying a new pc but I am unsure as to what sort of specs I should be looking for in a pc (I live in townsville by the way!) for one thing which is better pentium three or celleron? and why? I am thinking of spending around $2000 +or- a couple of hundred. what size HDD should I be looking at getting for this price: 10 or 15 gig? which is better a cd writer or a dvd drive in place of a normal cd rom? or is it best to get a plain cd-rom and how fast should the processor be for around this price? 500Mhz? how big of a monitor should there be? and what cards should I have inside in terms of sound and video? what sort of warranty should be included? and what softare should I get with the pc? I really am not a big fan of lotus! could you please reply to my email address : Allen.yare@jcu.edu.au thanks for your time and I really hope that there is someone out there who can help me! thanks again Allen
