i don't reconmend gateway because if they break it takes gateway parts to fix them
Not really...

Most computers will take any standard ATX case part. Matter of fact, one of the most REPLACED parts in a computer, the power supply, is often harder to find for HP's due to the funky sizing. Not that I recommend a Gateway by any means.

My experience with working with and on computers for quite a while leads to this:

For a ready built PC

Gateway - terrible
HP/Compaq - Bettter than Gateway...but still not great at all
E-Machine - hehehe....don't go there
Dell - Good machine, ok support, not perfect but above the rest

All computer tech support agencies suck now. They basically have some office in India, where they have some poor sap trying to match your problem with a solution in the database.

If you really want to get a great PC for a good price, there's only one option, BUILD YOUR OWN!
