    Open Box Desktop From Newegg

    I have no problem with open box computers, almost all returns are for nothing other than buyer's remorse. As long as you buy it from a legit place it's fine and since they do have a return policy I would go for it if it'll save money and have plenty of times.

    budget laptop?

    AT OfficeMax there's a nice Compaq computer on sale for $500. http://officemax.shoplocal.com/officemax/Default.aspx?action=browsepagedetail&storeid=2420225&rapid=563174&pagenumber=1&listingid=-2091336375 I believe it's only available in store. It's pretty nice for the money has good hard drive...

    budget laptop?

    Yes, I personally like openoffice better because I could never get used to the office 07 interface. All I use office for now is publisher at work. It's fully compatible with ms office, I've never had a problem opening any file.

    Laptop problem

    You may want to disable some of vista's features to save you ram like aero. It's pretty but worthless. The sidebar is also a huge waste if you still have that on.

    Wireless Options/ Bluetooth

    only thing that's good about bluetooth is if you want to use a headset or my favorite if you don't like the usb thing sticking out for a wireless mouse. it's no deal breaker, nothing i'd pay much for but it's a nice feature

    What good is a touch screen on the all in one hps?

    Officemax Top tech specialist in district (tech department manager) and i can't really afford to let these go below margin. I think I can move them if the go on ad but it'll be tough, I just don't see the point of the touchscreen.

    What good is a touch screen on the all in one hps?

    I'm going to have to sell these hp touchsmarts at my store. I think they're cool but not very practical. What good is the touchscreen? It's faster to just use the mouse. A nice kitchen pc isn't good enough for a 1500 computer. It's cool that it's all in one but the dell and macs look...

    looking for a printer :)

    The first one I listed, the canon would have better photo quality because the ink is more suited toward photos than the one in the hp. Also I didn't see any great deals on that futureshop site, no better than best buy.

    looking for a printer :)

    Yeah, I'll have to rework my recommendations then because it's a lot cheaper online than you'll find in any store.

    looking for a printer :)

    http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2974548&CatId=2709 (Best if You do a lot of printing.) That's the best deal in Canada I can find so far. The Canon MX700 is another good one but I wouldn't pay more for it than that officejet pro. I gotta go to work...

    HP 5610 or Epson RX595

    The epson has good quality ink but is going to cost you an arm and a leg to replace. It uses claria ink which is supposed to be the best they offer but I personally like their durabright better. But if you're worried about ink costs it's not the way to go. The 5610 is ok on black but bad on...

    Bubble-Jet or Color Laser Printer

    Laser is almost always cheaper in the long run when you calculate cost per page because they have a much higher yield but color laserjets are more expensive to buy the machines themselves especially if you need a multifunction machine. For business graphics and text lasers typically have better...
