I'm looking to purchase a new desktop computer, first one in 12 or so years. I'm also thinking about replacing my laptop ~2 years old. I need a new printer and also want to take the leap into a digital camera. My budget is about $3,000 a little more or less would be OK.
Main requirement is that my wife needs to be able to use it/them. In her words, more or less, 'Dummy proof, easy to use'.
We are not heavy users, light record keeping. Graphics for simple signs and posters. Internet useage but not heavy. No video games. No heavy number crunching. No programming.
I'd like DVD/CD recording. Easy hook up to camera/peripherals. I was thinking a B+W Laser printer and an Ink Jet for color. I did see a couple nice Color Lasers at reasonable prices, page costs? Real life use?
I'll add more details as people make comments/questions.
Oh, I'm not bound to PC, Apple OK-Maybe?
Thanks
