Roger Samara: Buying a computer is no easy task, and with the cost of many of the machines out on the market today, you want to make sure you’re making the right purchase. Follow these tips to find the right computer for you.

1. Tips on Buying Your First
Computer

2. Purpose of your computer
What do you you're your computer to achieve or for what are you
going to use it for. Is it for gaming, for school work, hard core
programming, digital media editing? When you know what you
want your PC to do for you, it is easier to look, choose and build
a computer system that is suited for your needs.
You can easily work things out to meet your budget. Even
though a computer can do a lot of stuff like digital photography,
multimedia, e-mail, music, writing and etc. you still need to know
your main purpose of buying a pc.

4. Computer Software
Another factor that you should put into consideration is the computer
software that you will need to do your work. The software installed on
your computer is what you need to effectively do the work that you
need. Some of the software that you will need for example is:
Operating system, Media editing software and the list goes on. You
can find some free software but some of the good ones are not free.

6. Computer Hardware
There are many people who tend to get
confused on whether they need to get the
latest software in the market or invest more
in computer hardware. In my opinion,
software and hardware should go hand in
hand in order for your computer to work as
efficiently as it can.

7. After Sales Support
You should also look for computer retailers that offer good after sales
services and support. Especially if you don't have any experience in
building your own computer or don't know any tech guy then you will
surely appreciate the extra help and support that your supplier can
give you.
There are even computer retailers now that offer extra services and
support when you buy your computers from them. Some offer that
kind of support for a small fee which can be a big help for someone
who don't know much about computers.

9. Computer Discounts, Coupons,
Freebies and Sales
Aside from comparing prices from one store to another,
Computer Discounts, Coupons, Freebies and Sales are the
things you need to look out for because it can save you a lot of
money especially if one of budget is one of your main concerns.
Some retailers may offer big sale and there are even those who
are willing to bring down their prices to match the offers of other
companies. While you can get free shipping coupons and
promos that can save you some bucks from the shipping cost.
