[AuckLUG] Buying New Computer

[Patrick Gildea]

What are you wanting your computer for? I can recommend what the best parts 
to get would be.

At the moment the Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs are the most powerful CPUs on the 
market by a long shot.

And for $300 the E6300 C2D is almost as powerful as the best from AMD FX-62 
that costs about $1500. So if you want to get the most power for your buck 
get the C2D. Just dont get a Mobo with a Intel P965 Chipset because its not 
supported by the Linux kernel yet.

I hope that made sense to you. Im never sure what will make sense all seems 
like english to me.
