Buyer’s Guide – Entry Level to Mid-Range, March 2005 @ AnandTech

“We like to start our Guides by explaining what the target market is, just to avoid confusion. There are numerous ways to tweak any system within a given budget, and more often than not, we hear comments about why we didn’t use product X or forgot to mention feature Y. For some people, specific features and upgrades are going to be important, while others are really just interested in a decent computer that will handle the typical tasks that they are likely to perform.”

Definately a good read. Check it out at AnandTech.
