Hello all!
Our computer pooped out. The timing of that is impeccable!
Just....superb.
We must get a new computer from dell.
I know there are other places, and possibly better, but that is where we must buy it from. That won't change.
The biggest priority is the home/family computer. I think I prefer a desktop for that.
We had also been looking at laptop and tablets for the kids for school.
I need recommendations that i can get from dell. Trying to look on my phone is not very nice lol. Difficult would be the word.
Laptops:
I went to look at Walmart for laptops. I was confused by the 256 sad and 1T hdd stuff. When looking online to try and explain what those are and the reasons for them, it just made it more confusing.
We are not big gamers, so we don't need that factored in. We do stream stuff. These are allowed to play some games that one can find in the Amazon app store, but not anything else really, but only once a week.
The laptop would mostly be for school and projects for adults and kids.
As fast and good of a processor as possible, and good amount of storage as well.
We want them to be bought with usefulness and longevity in mind. We don't buy the newest tech all the time that it comes out. We need an overall solid and long lasting product, both in tech and quality.
Desktop:
Same thing in regards longevity.
We need a good amount of storage. The Most we can get.
Speed is important as well. I am guessing we will be getting a windows computer as that will be the easiest for all family members to use.
Again, not gamers, but we do stream stuff.
Are there basic things one would want in regards performance and longevity?
With the selection at dell, does anyone have recommendations?
Also, in regards laptops and tablets:. Are the differences very big? Is it worth it to get one over the other?
Please remember that I am not a techy. I can do ok and gave figured out a lot, and if shown or explained, I do alright. But it is not a strong point for me.
I am the resident techy lol. Fezzik (the life of my life and the best guy i know) is fairly helpless when it comes up computers. Ease of use is kind of important.
Thank you, everyone!
