What Brand PC are you using & why is it your preference???

I'm using HP Pavilion I dunno why...It probably was on sale...lol

my computer, which i am using right now is a non brtanded i chosed non branded because it is cheaper and you choose custom configuration

im using DELL, dual core processor, 200gb sata HD, 2gb ram with Windows XP + service pack 3. i tried using compaq and other brand of pc but dell proves to be the best of them. dell also have the best customer support and upgrading is not that difficult when you have dell. i think vista is not very stable right now and theres a software and hardware compatibility issue, so i'll just wait for the right time to upgrade my OS.

HP, its probably the most cost-effective in the market!

i am using assembled pc ,because as there is no choice in branded comp.my config is intel p4,512ram, dvd writer.

I'm using Clevo Core 2 duo T7200 laptop, 80GB HD, 2GB Ram, DVDR/W , Win Xp ( not sure to use Vista) cause my client still running in XP environment and they didn't want to upgrade to Vista

Dell, XP Windows (not vista) Not sure why selected this one..been using Dell's for a while now.

I have a HP media cent and it has everything you outlined and I like HP have always even at work they had HP or Compaq who are the same company. Used a gateway years ago, I tend to stick with what works.
