Computer buying guide
Walter Mossberg. the consumer electronics columnist, has published his annual spring buying guide for desktop personal computers. As so many have noted, Mossberg says that waiting to buy a new Vista system may be the best policy:
So, if you desperately need a new Windows PC, be prepared to be underwhelmed and to be frustrated by incompatible software and hardware. And if you’re not desperate, you might wait another six months or so for the software and hardware to catch up — and for Microsoft to issue some bug fixes.
Actually, Mossberg prefers an Apple Mac:
Or you could buy a Mac instead. I still believe the best desktop computer on the market for mainstream, nontechnical consumers is the Apple iMac. It has gorgeous hardware and superior built-in software. Its operating system, Mac OS X, includes most of the key new features of Vista. And the iMac can even run Vista, along with its own operating system, if you need the occasional Windows program.
