I am now on the lookout for a new desktop due to my work needs after my laptop had a strange smell and then flames.

Any suggestion greatly appreciated on what brand would be the best to buy.

Hope everyone had a great Easter weekend

You might as well go down the pub and ask Dave. He will always have an opinion.

For the rest of us, we need more information e.g.

budget, what you intend to use it for, do you need a powerful machine, do you want to self build etc etc etc.
