About

I'm a devoted husband and a father of two energetic girls. I have a wide range of hobies that include flying kites and brewing beer. I love to read, write, and start web projects. I'm a passionate thinker who isn't afraid to venture into areas I have no business learning about like the coriolis effect or the History of Western Philosophy.

I have a knack for fixing computers because I realize that a majority of computer problems are caused when the user and the software developer don't understand each other. I try to help both sides come together when I can. If you would like to see some of my work, please check out the links below:

  • Lorem Ipsum - A blog I hope to contribute more to in the coming months on other subjects I'm interested in like finance, travel, and maybe even some computer information.

Desktop Computer For Sale

Here is the deal. I got bored one night so I started looking around eBay. To my surprise, it wasn't that difficult to find brand new computer parts that were top of the line just a year or two ago at a significant discount. In fact, every part of this computer is brand new except for the case, processor, and video card.

Normally, a year or two for a computer is a very long time. However, we happen to be in a very interesting period in technological development. The rule used to be that the software was limited by the hardware. Now, since smaller devices like smart phones and ipad's are becoming popular, the software is getting leaner--much leaner. The most important piece of software on any computer is a browser, and you really don't need much power to run a browser.

Knowing that, I would expect a top notch desktop like this to last for quite a while.

There's my spiel. Here are the specs:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium
  • 3.0 Ghz Dual Core Pentium D Processor
  • Intel Motherboard (details)
  • NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT Video Card (details)
  • 500gb Hard Drive
  • 2gb RAM
  • DVD Writer/Reader

This machine has been running flawlessly for about 3 weeks. It will come ready for you to make it yours without all that extra junk you get from HP or Dell.

Price: $325
