How I Find Recommended Computers and Computer Parts

This is what I do to update this web site.  Most of the time, I rely on the owners' comments about a product on NewEgg.  Use the drop down menu and choose a product, e.g. laptop hard drives.  On the left side, there are choices for:


Guided Search

Advanced Search

Power Search

Learning Center


Choose "Advanced Search" and click on the search button.  In the upper right side, sort the results by highest rating and/or most reviews.


For reviews and trends, I check about ten websites a day.  Here are the most informative to the least informative.

Finding the Deals

For me, finding a deal is about finding a quality product for a good price.  For people in the USA, I use PriceGrabber to search for computer components, software, electronics and camera gear.  Sort by price and choose a company that rates 4 or 4.5 stars with more than 100 reviews.  I've had outstanding service using NewEgg, Buy and B&H Photo.  Their warehouses are within 300 miles of my house and delivery is fast.  I much prefer FedEx compared to UPS for faster service and later customer service warehouse hours.
