PCs (with XP) – what is a reliable brand that lasts longer than two years? And is my DVD/CDRW dead?

I had three Dell PCs and they all seem to pass away within 2-3 years with some major crashes. Is there a brand of PCs on the market that lasts longer and is still available with XP? I do not believe I am buying another Dell in my lifetime.

Yes I know. I was a hard core Dell man, but you are right. After a few years, they die. I just purchased a SysteMax at TigerDirect with: 8 gig of ram, and 500 gb hard drive. Let me tell you that the 550.00 was well spent. It is super fast. I cannot ask for more than that. Check it out for yourself. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4396007&CatId=2629
You can’t beat that. Good Luck

Interactive Marketing by Miles, Christopher Edition ILL, 1 $50.63 This book critically examines the rhetoric surrounding current trends in the adoption of tropes of interactivity in marketing communication. Concepts such as viral advertising, customer-generated content, brand communities and the whole panoply of Web 2.0-mediated marketing technologies all have their foundations in an overt positioning of interactivity as the savior of effective marketing communication. Yet, what exactly is meant by interactivity in these contexts and how far does it represent a revolution in the methodologies of marketing? Anchoring his analysis in a critique of the assumptions of control embedded in current marketing communication models and the rhetorical analysis of exemplar texts from the Marketing Management, Customer Relationship Management, Viral Marketing and Buzz Marketing paradigms, Chris Miles investigates the constructions and reconstructions of discourse that surround the uses of interactivity in contemporary marketing discourses. In doing so, he offers a radical new model of marketing based upon a recursive, constructivist understanding of communication that uses metaphors of invitation and exploration to rebuild interactivity at the center of marketing. The work culminates in a reading of the theory of Relationship Marketing that uses autism as an allegory to interrogate the communicative paradox at the heart of this contemporary marketing panacea.
