Looking for whoever tends this forum to help me spend some tax return money on my 3 girls.
I really don't want to build....however obviously money talks.
They want laptops, but that's a negative. Kids break laptops and laptop chargers get broken and lost, and laptops disappear and teenagers like to skype, etc....these PCs are going around the first floor in the corners, sorta like this:
(trying to remind himself how to post a picture that's not on the net)
(that photo is of the PC that my friends in GC built for me and presented to me at FFsomeyear....still pounding strong. That photo was also taken while posting this thread, but not when you're reading it, unless you're reading it while I'm typing it, which would be cool...and weird.)
Reasoning: Girls want the 4 of us to play LFD2, Flatout, etc together. So that's what the machines have to do.
I was just browsing around BestBuy and noted some that they claimed to be "gaming" pcs with 8GB memory, 500 GB or 1 TB drives, etc, ranging $600 - $800....
You guys have any suggestions? Obviously I'm not including the monitor, which will be necessary....those all-in-one things would be super cool, but I'd guess I'd spend the money for the concept.
So, help me get my LAN PLANNED! Any / all suggestions and thoughts are welcome.
