Best Buy's $200 Black Friday PC and Other Cheap Computers

Great deal. Now the majority of the population that doesn't need allthe extras can finally get a decent computer for a good price. Let all the techies and people needing power hungry programs pay for the advances, let the masses get their computers for a reasonable price.

I have always recycled my monitor mouse and keyboard and upgraded items along the way. A good thing to do is to buy a barebones PC and build it from there. A BB is a tower, motherboard, Processor and memory. You can add the rest if you already have it!

Yeah, all the leaked 2007 black Friday deals are interesting.

I hope they're true:

As figured,,Best Buy is unloading outdated junk
rather than throw it away. Wait til you have to hunt around for stuff when you decide to upgrade.
Then the real nightmare will begin.

Look folks, I do not know what planet people are from who are inspired to hit the retailers on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Fact is the media coverage makes me puke. Better you tell the retailers, who put the screws to you all year, to go f-themselves and buy nothing. Amazing as it sounds, buy nothing...

It is so amazing at the hjype! Bets buy is always 20% higher than everyone else in Computers, Software, DVD's, so on! They imnstruct their employees to sell the Rewards Mastercard which has a lousy percentage rate and the rewards are limited to what and when!!!! They also saty in business by shlepping the accessories, Power supplys that eat electricity, make horrible noise when activated of a power failure and can easily be replaced by a 7 dollar power stripe! Also they cost and enormous amount and employee discout is 2/3rds less which tells you what hey are really worth.

If you want a computer, I would suggest Dell online! They even bought Alienware! And if you hadn't noticed lately the ugly exteriors of computers, then just check out an Alienware and you'll see what designing is all about. Yes they are pricey but top of the line hardware for gaming and anything else!

Best buy is for the weak minded, all that crao they sell with the computers is not necessary. Have you ever tried to get service done??? You can get a good computer for $700.00 that will run most anything and if it blows up in two years, well that's the time to get a new one and the very way the industry is set up! Anybody saying otherwise is a staged Bets Buy employee paid to blog good things about them!

I have a PC for games and an apple for surffing ,(NO VIRUSES)! It's true, had it a year and it runs as fast as ever!

I'm a teacher in a rural area. Only about 25% of my kids have a computer at home and I don't have one in the classroom. What about giving to these kids here at home?

It's no wonder you people have no jobs and have other countries doing your jobs! You are to easy, to gullable! I mean , well, you elected Bush and now you all think like him! Stand up like the stories of USA of old! Demand better!

This crap is just sales pitches to get you in! It's worthless! Go to school, read technical specs. You will be so disapointed if you buy this crap!
I once hased a Motorcycle dealer what the differences were in the prices of his Helmets, some were cheaap, others kind of expensive! He replied, "How much is your head worth"!

Your dollar only goes so far, get all you can for it and if it means spending a little more for quality and performance, do it.

Hey, I'm a gamer geek with an 80g HDD and I do just fine. My father is a "normal" user and his 80g is fine too. Not everyone needs the 320g external HDD these days.

shoving and craming the junk down the clients throats while the most money can be scraped out of them. america needs to stop buying into it

DO NOT BUY this computer. I purchased a $400
Ecomputer for my grandson and it lasted exactly
1 1/2 years. Best Buy wanted $500 to fix it!!!
They are junk. Better off, to save your $
for something worthwhile.

PEOPLE...BUY AMERICAN IF YOU CAN...MADE IN AMERICA BY AMERICANS...OUR U.S. DOLLAR IS FAST DEFLATING...OUR NATIONAL DEBT IS FLOATED BY CHINA, IMAGINE THAT, A COMMUNIST COUNTRY OWNS OUR FREEDOM LOVING DEMOCRATIC ARSES! P.S.- IF YOU WANT CHEAPER PRICES DEMAND IT BY NOT FALLING FOR THIS HYPE AND PROPOGANDA!

theonly problem is they will only have like 25 per store and when you have hundreds if not thousands of people waiting to get into the store they dont last very long

Beware if anyone wants to buy a computer at WalMart. I bought one in August 2007. It started giving me problems six weeks later and WalMart will not do anything about it because it was past their 15-day warranty. WalMart told me that it was my problem and to contact the computer company but did not know how I should contact the computer company. I finally got hold of ACER web site and six weeks later I'm still dealing with a company that does not want to help me. I have a new computer that worked for six weeks and now no one wants to fix it. It's the last electric item I buy at Wal Mart. Next time I'll pay a few more dollars at Gateway but I know that there is service after the sale.

If you shop Ebay, you can get cash back on all your purchases. It's a new reward program they have partnered with through activa.

I bought an eMachine from Best Buy four years ago, 40 gig hard drive. I just added a 512 memory stick to speed it up a little more.
It has done absolutely everything I have wanted it to do. I do banking, ordering, emailing, up and download pictures. Use Adobe photo, Word, Microsoft Money, No Games, bottom line, this little sucker has run like a top. I have Comcast as my provider, with McAfee protection through AOL. AOL and McAfee are FREE people. Comcast is broad band as you probably know. The Up and Down Speeds are fine.
I love this eMachine and have no intention of getting anything else at this time.
Joe is a happy boy.

I too bought a computer in Sept of 07 from Walmart, an HP, which is supposed to be very good. Wrong. The end of Sept if it was turned off it didn't want to come back on. Had it checked at a computer shop, my expense, they said stuff was running in the background, where it came from no one knows, they cleaned it out. I only had abou 3 weeks, and yes Walmart would not take it back after 15 days, contact HP they said. It worked for a few days and then started again. Called HP, again and again and finally got a hold of someone that said they could check it out. They sent a box for it to be sent to Irving Tx, which they still have it. Don't know if it will be fixed when I get it back. No more HP, the next one will be a DELL. So don't buy any electronics from Walmart or take it back before 15 days are up.
Thanks for letting me air my comments.
