Plus free shipping in the buy.com Clearance Store! Limited time offer valid on orders over $100. Hurry!
 
  We have nothing against the Mac, first of all; but most of the business applications we use and games we play have been written primarily for the PC. Plus, although the term personal computer now sounds quaint and archaic, “PCs” fits better on our navigation bar than “computers”!
 
The online computer store we like, buy.com, carries Macs as well as PCs, of course. One of the things you want in an online store is thorough information about your options: buy.com in the UK (click on “country” at the top right to select the UK site) has an excellent buying guide for computer hardware and peripherals. They also feature a price guarantee: if you find a lower price on any specific product you have purchased in the last 24 hours, buy.com will beat that price by £1. The store also accepts payment by cheque or Switch card in addition to major credit cards.
 
The US buy.com online store has a much wider range of products, since it has been established for a longer time. It also has a very useful section called “Technical Tutorials,” with topics including, among others, Consumer Electronics, Handhelds/PDAs, Operating System, and At Home. In case you were wondering, the At Home tutorial is not about how to buy a table or soapdish, but how to “turn your home into the electronic utopia you’ve always dreamed of.”
 
Tempting, isn’t it? And they are bound to have a complete selection of power converters and adaptors.
