How much do you care about your computer? :)
(74 posts)
Are you hard on performance, safety, style, hardware, software? What makes your heart pound or growl furiously when it comes to your machine?

I haven't replaced mine in a long time but gosh when I do I'm going to go all out so I can produce music on it.

I don't care for having the computer with the newest hardware, the chance is those things will be a lot cheaper in a few months. I just need a computer with moderate fast cpu, and a dedicated graphic card that can run most games. That's good enough for me.

Gotta be decent
02/19/2012
Reliable!
02/19/2012
It's most important to me to have a perfectly working and always up-to-date machine for work, and of course it must be good enough for movies too.
02/19/2012
Gotta be replaced. Mine is dying a slow death.
02/19/2012
Jesus Christ that was a long poll. In any case, I personally find that a computer that works well and is reliable is the best bet for me. If I can hook a tablet (drawing tablet, not those new nifty things) to it, then I'm good. I also like my computers to run fairly fast.
I'm not the most skilled with technology, but I do CSS incredibly well. Go figure.

I care a good amount but I'm not crazy nazi about it
02/19/2012
I'm more of a practical person. I want the basic things; reliable, speed, wifi, portable hard drives with a classic look. I don't need anything else.
02/19/2012
Mostly want it to be fast and reliable.

So many options!
02/19/2012
Today I've spent more than an hour trying to turn on my laptop. I'll go with performance and reliability.
02/19/2012
as long as it's reliable and works I could care less.
02/19/2012
As long as I can get on Eden everyday I'm cool
02/19/2012
I care a lot about my computer cause I play a lot of games. I normally just build my own
02/19/2012
If it does what I want without taking forever, then we're good.
02/19/2012
I work from home so I need a good pc and cam, to do what I need too.
02/19/2012
Gotta be safe! Gotta be useful! Gotta be reliable! Chocolate cookies! I AM INVISIBLE!!!
02/19/2012
if it runs alright I'm happy
02/19/2012
If it works and I can figure it out I'm cool.
02/19/2012
I saved up for a little while for my current desktop build, which is very high performance. My netbook on the other hand I haven't modified on the hardware level at all, and I don't expect it to be extremely powerful.
02/19/2012
Mine is going to be 5 years old this year but it's still good for me. I work and game as well but it lasts well I'll make the new one last as well by picking the components wisely.
02/19/2012
That was one great poll! My PC is custom built so I guess I am on the demanding side for computers. It is designed to play and run the latest video games with duel video cards, lots of RAM, blah blah blah (not that interested in details). By the same token it is about three years old, which is a dinosaur in terms of computers and I feel no urgent need to upgrade.
02/19/2012
I care about the software and capabilities (security, versatility, etc) more than I care about aesthetics, but I still want it to look good and not be falling apart. If it gets a scratch, I'll pout for a while, but I'll get over it.
02/19/2012
I care most about what goes in it. Thus why I always have my hands in the case upgrading, 'til the case gets too cramped of course. Mine's only two years right now, and gets what I need done done pretty efficiently so I don't need any upgrades right now. Recently had to replace the Blu-Ray drive though because the connector decided to go toasty.
02/19/2012
Haha, love your choices. Great sense of humor!
02/19/2012
As long as it does what I want it to, I really don't care one way or the other about the specs.
02/19/2012
I'd like to have the finest parts.

I need my computers to be useful, reliable, and convenient.
02/20/2012
They need one that kills viruses!
02/21/2012
I need it to be able to run ubuntu (which isn't difficult) and have a decent amount of storage. Of course, it's easy enough to switch out a harddrive....
02/21/2012
I just built my new computer a few weeks ago. What really concerns me is storage space, reliability, and ability to run multiple programs at once. My old computer would crash if I opened too many programs, but I decided to go with a ton of memory on this one to avoid that problem. I'm not really big on games right now, mostly just running some (sometimes demanding) programs for school.
02/21/2012
I would love to get the best but normally have to conpermise to the price
02/21/2012
The computer I use is my husbands and the way I look at it is if it works I'm ok. He's a computer and gaming nerd so he has to have the fastest gaming computer there is. He builds his own from scratch with everything he wants in it.
02/22/2012
For me it needs to be able to run multiple videos for editing and perform various image editing works so that means it essentially has to have the best performing parts and features.
03/14/2012
Well my husband is the first part you described and I'm the second. He just built this crazy looking computer that I don't understand. I have a little netbook. Technology hates me and I'm computer retarded. That's what I have my husband for I break these things he fixes them... Don't know what I would do with out him
03/14/2012
As long as it works I am happy.
03/14/2012
My desktop has a hex-core, so I think you can see where my priorities lie...
03/14/2012
Couldn't do without mine.
03/15/2012
I need a pretty good computer because I'm just really impatient about waiting on programs to run.
03/15/2012
My next PC needs to be able to run Skyrim.. on max. Period.
03/15/2012
I like to have a nice computer. I have a mac
03/15/2012
It has to work for school, EF, and selling my stuff online. If it does those things i am happy.
03/15/2012
As long as it isn't slow it will do
03/15/2012
i use my computer for gaming so its important that it runs pretty well

No. I don't need all the new, prettiest and best, but in order to do my school work and do the part of my job that requires the computer, I do need some things. Nothing super expensive, but my lovie paid A LOOOOT for my lap-top. I was really shocked because I did not expect it and had planned to get something barely capable of getting my school work done! It was really nice and it's absolutely perfect for my work as well as the millions of photographs I take of the family, pets and kids, but it's fine how it is. I take very good care of it, but that doesn't require paying a lot of $ to do so. I don't want the newest thing and the fastest. Mine is just fine and no matter how many new, pretty ones come out, this is *mine* and I'm happy with it.

I typically aim to build a gaming computer.
03/16/2012
I love computers that have all the latest fancy gadgets but usually I just can't afford it. When I can manage to save up though? I love upgrading my computers!
03/16/2012
I do a lot online, so I'm concerned about the condition of the computer, but I don't do much, just make sure some people who are prone to breaking things don't touch it.
03/17/2012
care about it like to get on line
03/17/2012
I don't care so much about it working the absolute best, but when it comes to it getting stolen/breaking down, I care about it almost more than my cat, and I really love my cat.
03/17/2012
I just want my computer to do what I need from it, mostly word processing and online stuff.

I love my computer. As long as it runs fast and won't quit on me, we're good to go. It all starts with having the best system you can get for your budget!
03/18/2012
It's just a machine. As long as it does what I want, I'm happy.
07/25/2012
As long as it let's me get on Eden with no problems!!
07/29/2012
I love my computer. if I didnt have it I wouldnt be able to write my storys on it and I think that is what would upset me most is my hands cramp up if I use pen and paper but on a computer its very easy for me to write.
07/29/2012
we have 2 computer 1 monitor here... I have the "internet" computer and he has the music computer... the internet computer is fine.. it does its job.. I can go on eden & do my thing... its basic... his music computer is for production of music and recording.. also not anything special it does the job as well

My computer hasn't been running really well as of late, but I've been too lazy to get it fixed/updated.

It's gotta be reliable.
07/29/2012
other than it being reliable and pretty (mine has a pin up girl skin), i don't really know enough to care xD
08/23/2012
I know quite a bit about computers, so it has to be pretty good for me to like it
08/23/2012
I don't care too much about it
10/15/2012
Fast and easy!
02/10/2013
for me....gotta be cheap I don't do too much fancy stuff on computers anymore so I'm just looking for something that can run the internet and play movies.
On the other hand, my S.O. has some crazy fancy computer, so if I ever need anything usual (ie, to use photoshop or editing or something like that) I will head over to his desk!

I love my mac even though it doesn't work with many games, and frustrates my friends etc. It just like the way it's organized, it works with my mind aka it's nice an simple and a bit artsy
