I think one of the worst computers you can buy is the PLAYSTATION 2.Why you ask?Well at christmas i got a playstation 2 and it was not working right e.g.the disc tray was sluggish, my DVD player wasn't working right and blue sparks came out of the memory card slot 1, so i swapped mine for a gamecube and i was much more satisfied.A couple of my other friends had to change theirs too because they weren't working right.Although it has really good games i would defineatley not get one.So in conclusion if you are thinking about getting a playstation 2 think again.

For a long time, I have said that computer firms provide poor support when things go wrong. At least with a console, it is looked up on as some sort of domestic device like a Video recorder. This I find is better when things do go wrong. A shop or other source seem more likely to replace a console compared with a PC.

Crappy computer companies? Heck, they're all junk, can only really rely on custom builds from trustworthy places now.

Dell, Packard Bell, Tiny, PC World, Gateway *hisses*, Time...

All overrated crap, with inept goons answering their "technical support" queries, and a "you've bought it, tough" attitude. Some of them even have the nerve to print that on their website.

Burn them, maim them, bludgeon them with a big stick; it doesn't particularly matter what form of punishment you think up so long as you don't give them your money. ;)

probably because it computes bibnary digits translating them into proper data which is know as computing (just a guess), or it could be because it has a CPU inside (maybe)
