I have been publishing the Crystal Angel Fashion Magazine from a 10 year old limited memory Dell I inherited. I have to be honest and say that it was a major hassle when working on videos and heavy graphic projects.
My school laptop is okay for getting me graduated like it did, but that is about it. I was hoping to make a teenie bit of money from the advertisers on my site, but the Great Recession kept throwing road blocks in my way. I was getting discouraged.
I always have faith and when I was asked to start working five days a week instead of my usual one or two, I jumped at the chance. My only real bills are medical ones from when I got squished, so any extra pennies I earned I decided to put away for a new computer. That day arrived on Saturday.
I love Dell, plain and simple - and when I saw that they had made a model just for Wal-Mart, I went to look at it in Montrose with Jill. I loved it. It was purrrrfect:
4 GB of memory
a 640 GB hard drive
Graphics accelerator
and Windows 7.
Intel Pentium dual-core E5500 processor
2.8GHz, 800MHz Front Side Bus, 2MB L2 Cache
18.5" diagonal LCD widescreen display
OH and it is an All-in-one meaning no big old box to lug around.
BUT the best part. It was only $498.00
Setting it up was a breeze - even for a blond like me.
I was also even to move some of my favorite programs that I use to make the magazine.
The only company that is making me buy a new one is Swish, which I use to make my videos. hmmmmph.
I would HIGHLY recommend this amazing computer for anyone on a major tight budget like me with only one suggestion: the built in speakers are not all that great so also save up your pennies for some decent speakers which only cost me $29.99.
