Laptop or not?

Laptop would be nice if it's a good one, and doesn't overheat too easily.

I wouldn't get a laptop. They're are not easily upgradable, and when I say not easy, I mean almost impossible.

True that. My sister's laptop's webcam broke, and she can't do anything about it since it's built into THE loving SCREEN. So if she wants to replace it, she needs to replace a properly working screen too. :/

No no, I am not talking about webcams, they are easily replacable by external ones. I am talking about things such as video cards, motherboards, processors etc. Although depending on the laptop, things like RAM and hardrives are usually easy to upgrade.

Yeah, my laptop had HDD replaced. And one internal speaker connection got loose, so I use external speakers now.


You'll be amazed how fast laptops tend to break down compared to desktop PCs.

I know. I was just giving an example.

Anyway, what are some minimum specs my computer should have?

I'm getting a computer custom built by a friend of my dad's. £300 for 4GB DDR3 RAM and Dual Core processor. 512mb graphics card. ^^

417 US dollars for that? I guess that's decent. But seeing as you don't know stuff about computers, whatever works.

I can tell because you simply called the video card a 512 mb card instead of giving it a name.

I was saying it's a 512 mb graphics card. It's a Palit GT240 nVidia Graphics Card. Don't make assumptions please. :)
