  I bought my computer at PTC (Prime Time Computer) on Wilson, east of Jane.  SO far so good, It once got a virus and I took it there where they fixed it and updated it. 


  You can go and ask for prices, I think the interest on credit are high so pay by other means if you decide to buy there.

Not sure if you can change the settings at work...Ask your IT guy, or maybe God can help you with that...he's a firewall lover.

I was having that problem at home and it had to do with my AntiVirus Settings, they were blocking almost every image. Maybe it's that.

COMPUTER SALES ? ? ?
Ok – I jut want some help from you guys to point me in a direction where I could find good deals on computers.  I’m checking out Best Buy and Future Shop – they seem to be having computer sales every week and the prices seem alright… I have checked Costco, and although they seem to have some nice computers, their prices don’t really compare to the others…
Any other places you can recommend me to look at?
