I bought an Siemens Amilo D 2ghz Laptop 2 yrs ago
Man oh man - ive brought it in for repairs 3 times now
Its noisy as fk, battery is flattening, overheats (2 new fans)
and
after the warrenty runs out im Screwed.
Yes i should have saved up and bought something Better
Okay Dell you win.
:sad1:
I never regret buying my desktop because 1/2/3/4 years later I've upgraded and changed it so much, it's still somewhat up to date.
laptops however are different I guess seeing as it's a lot harder to upgrade them :rolleyes:
yeah same with kai, plus i no its gonna become outdated soon so if u always wait for the next thing and keep waiting, then ull never get a computer u jut gotta toughen up for the long haul lol and suffer for a while when its out of date till u get a new computer every 3 yearsish or whenever you can get the spare dough
I regret buying a new laptop because I know within no time it'll just become an expensive paperweight.
My regret is building a comp straight from a computer show 3yrs ago.
The worst place to buy a computer.
Got a p4 2.0 for $399 and a P4B mobo that only runs on SDRAM.
If I wait 2 months I could have got a mobo w/DDR.
i had to bring my peice back to get a virus removed and they ended up replacing the harddrive and ive had to take it many time to get windows put back on it cuz its got really fucked up. <_<
i regret buying a Tiny about 5 years ago, i've only recently learnt the value of build my own
Really peeded off fecking pcs all cack and hassle
I regret buying the motherboard that i did for this computer, it would be well worth it to have spent an extra 50 bucks to get an asus board or something. To late, now i gotta save up and buy a whole new one.
I also regret my whole old PC, wish i had gotten it built by a friend or something (back when i knew nothing about computers). It also had a pos motherboard.
Me tooQuote:

I got ripped OFF!
I am still using the same computer I got in 1998 and it is still good. B)
If any thing its how it was bundle , you know crappy mobo or no agp slot, wrong style of memory, like Rambus :lol:
Edit : Funny how you don't make the same mistake twice! I think thats why I upgrade every two years to TRY and stay current . :rolleyes:
Mine had all those except for teh memory part, the memory was some lightening fast PC66 SDRAM! :oQuote:

i regret Buying a this pre-build Sony RS430G, LOUD fans, and Mucho Updates in sony programs... :angry:
+ their is a stupid delay when right clicking desktop and that is just out of its package.
Sprocket only has two parts remaining from her original build...the HDD ( wish I had a Seagate) and the CPU ( no problems/regrets with that), so all in all I am very pleased.
That will prolly change next week though. ;)
:o What are you buying? :)Quote:

You know me, I'm always changing something.... :P
I bought my refurbished Dell desktop 18months ago in the US and hauled it back to the UK (a pain) but apart from a replacement CDR under warranty, it has been absolutely perfect. I have upgraded ram and HD now but it still runs a treat and very quiet.
Terrible gateway. 777mhz. P3. 2 ram slots...up to 512 RAM. But 2 PCI slots, that only take Half Height, or Low Profile cards, which they dont make anymore. And i forget what kind of ram, but it is expensive. So its pretty much a lead weight. But it is 4 years old, so that is ok.
