I need a new computer
Only specifications - 1. Dell 2. It has to come with everything I need for work already installed - Excel, Office Pro, Word, etc 3. Must have Solitaire 4. Flat Screen monitor preferred because my desk is already cluttered 5. I'd like to be able to have Linux on there as well I don't care about RAM or anything nerdy like that because I'm not putting any porn/music on there. And price is an issue, since I'm a little short on cash. It happens when you date a whore who never pays for anything because she blows her entire paycheck on designer clothes and cocaine. And no I didn't know this when we were dating, obviously --------------------   |

Can you get a computer with Office already loaded on it? I thought that violated antitrust laws. Also, just about any computer will have Solitaire on it. Not a single computer that I know of comes with a CRT monitor anymore. Those are outdated. You should only find computer packages coming with flat screen. Linux won't come preloaded either. Why would you want Linux unless you are going to be coding? Do you just want to fuck around with it a bit? Just buy the cheapest Dell computer package you can find. It will have everything you need, and you can just buy (or obtain other ways COUGH COUGH) Office separate.

Naw its not against the antitrust laws, having it included in windows would (which is still dumb IMHO). Dell/Sony/Toshiba/whoever else doing it is standard practice. Usually they include MS works or some crappy version, then charge you if you want the full office set. |

I'm sure groups will go after Microsoft more in the future and that will change. I will just stick to home-built desktops.
