> Whatever you do, price in the 4 year warranty on whatever you buy.

It’s acceptable to be put in ‘contract/warranty’ for ONLY 2 years. WHY? The pc co. that Freeper eventually chooses could be a lemon and he/she might be stuck for 4 years, dealing with the same people/problems..just like cell-phone companies.
I’ve had 2 year warranties with Dell, HP and Gateway and couldn;t wait to to break away from them once the warranty was up. except for Gateway though. They were surprisingly professional in most cases.

The college program is 4 years. If you have lots of money you can buy a new PC every year or two, but most of us are on a budget of some sort. I’ve found that Dell does fix their PCs, after first trying to get you to do it for them.
