You're thinking of buying a new computer?  There's never been a better time to do so because computers are faster, smaller, and more powerful than ever before.  Best of all, prices continue to fall and there are plenty of good desktops and laptops available at a decent price.

Here are some questions to think about when you're looking for a new computer:

Do you want a desktop or a laptop computer?  A laptop is the choice if you need to work away from home.  A desktop usually gives you more "bang for a buck" than a laptop, however.

What specifications should your computer have?  The most important thing to look for is memory, which has the most impact on the speed of your computer.  You'll also need to think about what processor you want in your computer.

Software is another important aspect of computers.  What tasks will you do with your computer?  That will determine whether you need word processing software, accounting software, picture editing software and other software packages.  It's best to buy this software with your computer, since computer manufacturers offer lower costs on installed software.

Don't forget the peripherals!  Will you need a printer?  What about about an Internet modem or wireless router?  Talk with Shanna or another one of the knowledgeable Sims TV & Electronics representatives for help in sorting through all the choices.  Or head to the on-line Sims TV computer system calculator to create your very own personalized system.
