Question by Josh: How to compute the real value (depreciated price) of a 2nd hand laptop computer or any electronic gadget?
I want to know if the price of a 2nd hand offer is reasonable.

Best answer:

Answer by askMahesh
It’s 33%/year depreciation for tax value. But I will say

1 year old pay 50% of original value
2 year old pay 35% of original value
3 year recycle it, you can get brand new computer for 30% of the value it was 3 years ago.

What is the best laptop computer to buy?

Question by Chloe loves LA: What is the best laptop computer to buy?
I am starting college in a couple months and I need to buy a new laptop computer; however, I am not sure which is the best to buy. I will need it to write reports and work on projects. I also plan to take a lot of multimedia and film studies classes that will require me to make and burn my own DVD’s so it needs to be able to do that. I currently have a sony vaio but i need a better one for college. Please help, Thanks!

Answer by Happy Guy
I’ve always preferred Toshiba for laptops!

But you may want to look into Mac’s for multimedia. I’ve never owned one, so I cant say about those.

I’d like to see if I can find a decent laptop online to do work for one client who wants to put their own software on my computer. This is so I can dedicate that computer to them and not risk my personal info being tracked by their proprietary CRM software. I’ve heard of slickdeals.net and just tried amazon.com. Any other Websites you recommend to find a great deal?

Q&A: What alien ware computer should i buy the m18x laptop or the aroa desktop?

Question by : What alien ware computer should i buy the m18x laptop or the aroa desktop?
Hey im thinking about buying a new computer and i saw an alien ware laptop and desk top and im confused on which is better

Best answer:

Answer by Michael
do not buy alienware, it is over priced and under performs… please build a custom pc, i do this very often (building my own computers) and can attest that you get more performance for less cost. You just have to be able to put it together.

If you must have alienware get the desktop, laptop gaming is stupid and pointless.
