I'm getting a new computer possiblity within the next few months and i'd just like to know what's a good brand to buy give me your opinions i'd like a desktop not labtop

Please don't say Dell iv'e had nothing but problems with that brand :/

I see Mac has been suggested already, but I would recommend against that. Compatibility issues will come up frequently, especially when your school project needs to be submitted in Microsoft Word. There are ways around that, but the hassle of doing so, as well as the high cost of the product, outweigh the reliability in my opinion.

As you said, Dell isn't exactly reliable. My girlfriend's Dell laptop has gone through hell and back diagnostically. I work in a rent-to-own store and we constantly get Dell laptops and desktops in for service. In that respect, I would go for HP, as that is what I have here at home, and what we receive for service the least. I have the HP Pavilion Slimline s5250t. You can look it up on the HP website. If you're not going to be using it for gaming and such as I do, you can go for the cheaper model in the same series.

Alternatively, Compaq computers as good as well. I believe Compaq and HP are the same company now anyway. I would avoid cheap knock-off brands, like what you would find at Walmart for $250. They'll fall apart and cost you more in the long run. My suggestion is to buy either a new HP, Compaq, or Sony, or a refurbished one from a reputable supplier.
