So it turns out my question to the masses last week about The Sims 3 for consoles was for nought. Over the weekend, my wife and I decided to buy a new PC (Yay!). We’d been deliberating for a while whether to purchase one or not as our previous PC had been a hand-me-down from her parents and was very veeeerrry slow causing a lot of frustration. So on Saturday, we were at Petco and decided to pop into Best Buy next door to have a quick look at some laptops (just for future reference mind). My wife was surprised at the cost of PC’s nowadays as she thought we’d have to go north of $1000 to get anything decent. This revelation in combination with our existing POS resulted in us scouring internet forums to decide what PC would suit our needs. We ruled out a laptop as I already have a work one for travel and could get better bang for our buck elsewhere. There was some all-in-one PC’s in store that were pretty neat so we were between those or a tower. Seeing as our existing monitor is pretty useless and we would eventually want to upgrade it, we decided on an all-in-one PC: the HP Envy 20-D034 Touchsmart. We collected the PC Sunday morning (see, we work quickly) from Best Buy and I gotta say I’m really liking it. Besides gaming, we only really need the PC to do word/excel documents and for internet so it’s perfect for us. Compared to our last PC, which took literally 10 minutes to get started, we’ve made a quantum leap forward. Yay for quick decision making!
