Hey everyone. I'm not too knowledgable (sp) on computers. I would like to buy a nice convenient and cost efficient desktop computer. I do not know what I would need to efficiently run programs, stay up to date, among all the other things. I know that I want an HP desktop. A decent amount of memoery( i take a lot of pics) a good processor speed and a decent amount of RAM. Anyone offer anything I should look for?

Most computers out should beable to handle camera pics and basic needs. Don't worry about Ram and HDD space, cause you can always had more for cheap. If you want, pick a computer based on CPU speed cause that is the hardest to upgrade. The rest are easy. So just head to the store and pick one out in your price range with the fastest CPU speed. Most stores have ppl that can give you advice on CPUs, but there all the same. Yeah some are alittle better than others. It is more of a personal opinion. I like AMD myself.
If you were wanting a notebook, I'd obviously say something different
