Someone recently asked me about computers. They didn't have one so they are using the ones that are available at their nearest library. I think that this is a great idea for those that don't have a computer. The best thing about using the computers in the library is that you don't have to pay for using them. I understand that at some libraries you only get a limited amount of time to use the computer but that is definitely better than nothing. I know at least one library in the Philadelphia area will sign you up for an email address - again, something that you don't have to pay for. I did a little checking around and found out that there are at least 2 internet cafes in the Philadelphia area. Internet cafes do charge a fee for you to use their computers.
It all depends on what you want to use your computer for but I think that it would be a good idea to start saving money so that you will be able to buy your own computer. Computers have come down a lot in price since I got mine. And to be quite honest with you I got my computer from QVC. I think they offer the most "bang" for your money and with computers you get a good warranty and free technical support.
Now you may want to get your computer at a store and there is nothing wrong with that but do be careful. You will want to get the best computer that you can. A lot of it will depend on what you are going to be using your computer for. I do know that Aldi's (across from the Cheltenham Shoprite) has sales on computers from time to time. They are at a good price but you have to know what payment terms they are willing to take. The next time I see an Aldi computer sale I'll post about it here.
My brother does computer repairs. He also has some computers for sale. I just sent him a flyer from someone in the Philly area that also does computer work. I sent him the flyer because I wanted him to see how others are advertising the same thing that he is doing. It's not professionally done (which my brother agreed with) but it does have pictures of the kind of work that they do and having any kind of flyer is better than having none at all.
This particular business does free computer diagnostics, on-the-spot repairs and also has computers for sale - some are as low as $300! Sounds a lot like the same kind of work that my brother does!
I'm sure that there are many of these kinds of businesses in the Philadelphia area that has computers for sale. But again I say to be very careful when buying a computer. Consider it an investment and buy the best one that you can!
