IBM Aptiva 801 PC

Pros: Great all around system with plenty of everything for anyone!
Cons: Absolutely NONE!

This is the ultimate in affordable PCs. It includes everything including large amount of memory and RAM, high speed dial up modem, fast CD-ROM and and easy to use interface. I truly recommend this PC if you need high performance but don't have the...

Pros: NONE
Cons: too many to name

I can honestly say that I will NEVER buy another IBM product!! When we decided to shop for our first PC, we decided that IBM was the way to go. We figured we couldn't go wrong with a well known company! WRONG! Right from the start we had problems with...

Pros: Value, software
Cons: Processor not very upgrade-able

The entire Aptiva line, while hard to find these days, is a powerhouse for the dollar. There are cheaper systems out there but they aren't good deals. The 801 isn't as upgrade-able as the Pentium and Athlon models that IBM makes but why pay for so much...

Pros: Solid piece of equipment, moderately priced, easy to learn.
Cons: I can't think of a one.

Several months ago I began to research for the purchase of a computer. I spent numerous hours going from one web site to the next comparing this and that.

Computer buffs,
I was a hard sell. Several of my friends have been computer buffs for years. They have been trying to get me to join in the group for quite some time. I told them that they would have to convince me that I needed a computer (I...

Pros: good model for new users
Cons: faster ones are here

I just bought an IBM for the same price as this one and I am amazed at the abilities it can do. Now that there is a faster
model I expect higher of it. The price for this however, is really
good. I like the way that this model lets you change...

Pros: always good
Cons: must buy

My opinion on the Ibm ranks the highest, the first computer I every had was an 1995 used computer which I bought from my aunt for 600.00.
Now I have a HP 6535 and I would trade it for a IBM anytime,the IBM was used but it is better than any new...

Pros: great computer, loads of programing
Cons: amd chip is slower than pentium

This is a great deal but like i said before. amd processor's are not the best in the world. they run everything off the ram making your computer go slower and wears your ram out quicker. other than that this computer run's great and with all the software...

Pros: easy to use and setup. powerful enough to do what you want
Cons: speakers, get the largest drive you can

No one makes better hardware than IBM. No one! My brother and sister and my self are data processing professionals. All of us have Aptivas. When my elderly mother wanted a machine, I insisted she purchase an Aptiva. It has worked just fine for the...

Pros: speed, reliability, name
Cons: none

After returning my defective Compaq and storming out of CompUSA I decided to try a different approach. I had already reccomended IBMs to two of my friends, so I decided to hop over to their website and buy one myself. The system I purchased, a 475MhZ...
