Buying a new computer should be considered a major purchasing decision so you will need a checklist. This simple checklist will ensure you have all the necessary basic information covered and known so that you will make the best decision or purchase possible. Never underestimate the power of the lowly checklist.

First off, try to gauge what kind of routine work you need to have done. Decide if you will be doing a lot of paper and document work, communications, computations, data storage or video and photo editing. Identifying beforehand what is your most routing work will determine the price point of the computer you want to buy.

Should after your initial identification of tasks prove that you will be basically doing a little bit of everything then you will probably be needing a mid range computer. A mid range computer will have at the minimum an i5 or equivalent processor and at least 500 gigabyte hard drive or less. Always choose a lower capacity hard drive as this spins faster and thus computations are done quicker also.

If you are thinking of basic clerical work and such, then you can always get an entry level model at around 300 dollars or so. Many companies compete at this level of entry level computing and you will be spoilt for choice as to which one is the best for you. Read reviews and forum posts if you are at a lost for which is the best for you.

Buy a brand that has a good reputation, and also one that has proven longevity. Many good models of business computers can last you at least 3 years or more before becoming obsolete so choose a brand that has that proven track record. Also choose a brand that has a proven track record in customer service and after sales servicing.

Never ever play games on a computer that is meant for business. This is because it may mess up the partitioned sectors and setups of the system configuration and give you headaches later on. So if you really want to play computer games, then it is best you buy a computer just for that purpose.

This article has thus covered some basic information that you should consider before going out and buying that business computer or desktop for your office.
