Just wondering if anyone here has one. And if so, do you like it etc

___________________

Had one before and it was quite the POS. Also have a friend who works in IT sales that says they're still the same. You save a bit, but probably not worth it imo.

bought one many years back. worked for many years. but good god i would not go back after the many many horror stories i've read.

Don't go MDG. Dont go for an HP/Acer etc from a big box store either.


Id recommend finding a friend who has experience with building pc's and get them to build/spec one up for you. It really depends on what you need to do with it.


If you're going laptop.. Stick with Asus and Toshiba. Unless of course you go the Mac route.

If you have any questions whatsoever, let me know. I have 5 personally custom built PC's in my house for various purposes.

I got one in 2007 I think, and I've had nothing but problems with it. Two hard drives crapped out after a year or two. When the motherboard broke last year, I was still in the 5 year "parts warranty" (no labour). They tried to charge me over 200$ for the MB and CPU, and they didn't even know if the CPU was done. They said they didnt have the older MB's anymore, so that's why I would need a new CPU too. The whole computer wasn't even worth $200. I found an MB myself, and sure enough the cpu still worked.Never again will I go MDG.

If you do, be kind and don't expect free service.

I've learned that from years of building systems for people. They always want free service, support.

So now, I just send them to Canada computers.

NCIX man. They will build it for you for $50. You can choose every single part that way and ensure you've got quality through and through. Oftentimes companies that sell pre-built computers will use the very cheapest components and that's why they fail. They may sell you on the fact that it features the latest Intel I5 processor, 4 GB of ram and 2 TB of storage, but God knows what quality the components actually are (except for the processor obviously). I'd say spec one out yourself (or have somebody help you) at NCIX and have them build it for you.
