I have heard some decent things about the VPR matrix line at Best Buy. It seems like a decent computer. By the way it uses (i think) a 32mb GeForce 2 GTS-V video card.

Dells are nice too...and if you are patient they provide rebate offers once in a while which can be combined with coupons readily available on the internet. Often times, you can get a very nice system for a steal.

Im not too fond of the Compaqs, except for the fact that you can get an Athlon XP processor (which is cheaper). But most of the savings from buying the Athlon XP processor is nullified by Compaq's overcharging on other components included in the computer. If you want an Athlon XP processor system I would buy it at a computer package from an independent computer store or build your own computer.
