Hello, I am a man of my seventies well past the age of learning new technology skills. I am buying a new computer because my old one, bought in 1998 (but since resurfaced with XP) is breaking down. I had some problems with the support of Dell before so I am reluctant to buy from them, unless they are still the best choice.
I do not use much, just writing six books important, and I plan to install automatic backup software for them, and I use the Internet to newspapers and mail electronics. I want a fast computer that does not take ages to start and begin word and browser.

Unfortunately, all new machines that are emerging now Windows Vista will have on them. It may be a decent O / S, but it will probably take some time.
Dell is still the cheapest - I have a Dell computer which functioned without problems for almost two years now. My father is 64 and I helped to buy a Sony VAIO notebook he loves. He has only a 14 "screen, but the LCD screen is much clearer than his old monitor that he did nothing wrong to see it (and I put the resolution a little lower to make icons and font size). He spent approximately $ 1000 on the computer, and a few dollars for a wireless mouse / keyboard.
Never buy most or least expensive computer - you usually find the best balance powers and costs in the middle.
Good luck!

For this sort of thing a cheap Dell will be fine. You can choose one for about $ 300.

get it with a dual-core CPU to least 1 GB of ram DDr1 or DDr2
DDr2 is generally faster, it is up to 533Mhz and DDr1 is generally slower and it is 100Mhz at 400Mhz make sure you have a good graphics card at least 128 MB and a hard drive with at least 40 gigabytes of space
This is a good site if and are in the usa

It seems that you want something that is fairly easy to use, and not too terribly envy. suggestion I 1.
I recommend a laptop Apple. I used to be a guy Windows too, but believe me, it's better. Easy to use, easy to be updated, and the sweetness that you would expect from a Mac. I bought a few months ago, and it works Microsoft Word and all of those other Microsoft programs, and it has a Internet browser.
Granted, they are a little expensive, but when you consider that their ease of use and the fact that there is virtually no chance of you getting a virus while on the Internet , it's worth it.

You can search for a CPU with average quality Vista if you have a rich material and the latest operating system.
The monitor is very very important for your eyes. Donc , you could find a recommended 17 ", or even19" the monitor.
You can try to buy your new computer to the famous shop in the vicinity where you can let them tell you a lot about the computer that you want. You might even standing near the store's other customers who are given information on the computer they want, and so you can listen to what is said about them is not so much ' learn about computers in this shop that all computers for general use more or less the same characteristics and qualities, but to get an idea on how the general store, treats its customers. Good luck!

Hmm. If you want to continue to use your monitor, i would go with the Apple Mac mini, which is small, cheap (relatively), and very reliable. It also allows you to use your monitor, keyboard and mouse. If you want certain your XP, dell, HP, Gateway and Compaq are about all possibilities.
