i have a qs. is it good to bring desk top pc with us loose Mother Board, RAM, HDD, keyboard, lan card. Here in india power is 220 v and in canada 110. is computers works there? we are moving in november.



Hello Tanya

I recently purchased a custom built PC - a P4 3.2 GHz HT with 2 MB L2, 2 Gigs RAM, 160 GB SATA, 128 MB Graphics card, 17" LCD Monitor etc and it cost me CAD 1400 (including tax) which is Rs 54,000 in India.

See what you can get in India for Rs 54,000 - and it's better than what I got, buy it from India - else buy it from Canada.

Answer would depend upon your financial planning and if you already own one..
Coz if you do.. sell that in India and get new one here.. see how numbers stack up there.. for abt 500/600$ you should get decent desktop for graphics/games etc.. even cheaper if you want only for emails/internet..
If however you are coming with less dollars... what you spend here would be out of your own pocket and out of your settlement funds.. which is not big.. but at-least in first few days giving out cash in that amount is gonna hurt..
more importantly.. get as much s/w as possible.. Win XP itself costs 99$ here.. virusScans.. games, accounting s/w , quicken, money.. I always used to get it from India.. Books, clothes, s/w, cheaper to get from India..



Or quickly make friends here that will be able to lend you the software. But don't worry, there is always Kazaa. :D

Before joining the Kazaa network, dont forget that it is badly infested with viruses, adware and spyware....
