I've been building my own machines for years, but last year when I found my Acer Aspire Core 2 Quad for $500, I couldn't resist.  Buying the stuff off Mwave or wherever wouldn't save me enough money to warrant hunting around for all of the components, plus shipping for a case?  No thanks, buddy (That's what Marketpro shows are for, lol).  I don't do PC gaming anymore, just music production, so one of these would be perfect for any non gamer as far as this guy is concerned.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Level 5]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 7:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[Music production FTW...

As far as pre-builts go, this is a good deal. 400$ for a pretty decent box with a monitor? Throw Ubuntu on there (or keep Vista; from the looks of it, this thing could run it nice and smooth), and you've got yourself a solid computer for a price that's really not that bad. Yeah, you could probably build your own for cheaper, but for people who don't have the know-how/don't want to order stuff from NewEgg and put it all together themselves, this isn't a half-bad idea. Just because they're not necessarily "innovative" doesn't mean that they're not *good*... Next time somebody asks me about what to buy in a new computer, I may very well recommend this. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goatee Man]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 3:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[That's nice for the price.<br><br>Great, actually.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[superhobo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 7:39AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[My parents were in the market for a new PC and put a cap of $500 on it.  I did some searching and there just didn't seem anything solid at that price range, HP or Acer probably had the forerunner, but there seemed to be a lot of complaints about it and the specs weren't something that I was letting my parents settle with.  I then stumbled upon a Lenovo, their 3000 line which I don't think exists anymore, but it blew everything in the price range away for only $50 than what my parents orginally set as the cap.  The thing I liked most is that it came with 2 GB of ram, which was two times as much as the HP and Acer system and also a 500 GB HDD, which again I think was two times the HP and Acer counter part.  It was a package deal to boot, which they didn't need, but it got them a 19" LCD and a new printer.<br><br>They have had it for a while and it seems like a solid PC, I was a little worried as it was Lenovo's entry level, but so far so good.  I guess I wasn't too worried though, as we exclusively use Lenovo for our laptops and desktops here at work and I bought my own Thinkpad (based on my great experience with them) for my personal laptop.  I also will be buying another Thinkpad as when the wife is ready for a new laptop, probably sometime this year.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zargon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 7:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[is it for left handed people only?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[lanosian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 7:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[I hope so.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[giuliop]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 9:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[well, I don't like the idea of an atom for a work machine, but at my work at least it won't matter, since I use my computer mosty as a dumb terminal, accessing remote VMs.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Verythrax]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2009 8:36AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo trots out new trifecta of unexciting desktops]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/16/lenovo-trots-out-new-trifecta-of-unexciting-desktops/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anyone could slap it all together - but would it last seemingly forever?
