Well if it is a desktop you could take it apart and make sure there arent any loose connections.

Lenovo if you want a laptop.

Build it yourself if you want a desktop.

Go Mac,

These are the reasons you will have a computer that will be reliable, won't lock up and will just do what you want it to do, and since all macs are now intel, you can even do a partition and put windows for any app that won't run on OS X.

Talks to people that have switch, not almost switch, and go to an apple store and play with the thing and talk to the geniuses at the store.

You will soon come to the conclusion that there are better reason to switch than to stay in the PC world and once you get used to using the mac you won't want to use a PC.

Of course you'll hear that PCs are better because everyone uses them. That's like saying that a ford is a better vehicle than a ferrari because everyone drives one.

macs are for sure the way to go. if you really need to run any windows programs you still can and leopard is coming out soon. plus you'll never do this again ....Then again Im biased because i haven't used windows at home since 3.11.
