I decided to right this because i was recently on e-bay and i was browsing through computers and i found a brand new Sony vaio laptop for £2.99 :0. i was looking at the specs and there were about 10 in stock. at first i was interested in buying one of these products until i stopped to think how a band new sony vaio laptop could possibly be soled for £2.99. when i thought about it it became clear. i ether could of been stolen or fallen of the back of a lorry. if i had bought the laptop and it had been stolen my parents would of gone to jail for buying stolen goods. i clicked on the user and it confirmed my suspicions. a brand new Nintendo Wii for £2.99 and a 42” Toshiba TV for £2.99. it had obviously been stolen.

I’m not saying don’t use e-bay but just be carful because if your caught with stolen goods then you could be jailed for possessing stolen goods. there are allot of good deals to be found just don’t get caught out.

grooveshark.com is a very powefull music streaming website that has a nice clean and clear interface. learn in the video

here are my top 5 programs i install after a reinstall or if i buy or am setting up a new computer.

1: Spotify (uk and europe only)
i install this beacause it is my main music streamer. on occations i will use grooveshark but i mainly use spotify. it is great and i listen to all my music there before i buy it of itunes or download it of amazon. it is great and i got it 1 day before it became invite only. i get afew ads but usally im working on something else and dont notace them.

2: Mozzila Firefox.
Firefox is my main web browser and i loveit beacause of the addons and themes. i usally install safari or chrome after if i need speed but firefox is allways the deafult browser i use. it is free and not the fastest but definatlly not the slowest. i love it!!!

3: skype
skype is a very fast voip (voice over ip) client. it runs very fast and is easaly the most popular voip client. the video chat has no lag and you dont even a microphone or webcam to chat. you can do just like msn chat or just webcam or just sound and with all of these you can still chat using the chat part. i love the skype interface.

4: avg free
this my internet security and it works really well. it runs using hardly any resources and blocks any threats. you can easily set it up and comes with a load of feature youd usally have to pay for. doesnt look to nice but is really reliable.

5: Itunes
i always install itunes beacause i have a ipod and it runs all my music. i love the podcast intergration and am subscribed to many podcasts wich update reguarlly. i espesially love the new hd films wich look lovelly. the interface looks nice and cleancut just like all apple products.

hay. i have been thinking about doing this projec for about 2-3 weeks now. i have decided i am getting a montor from my uncle along with a keyboard and mouse. then im getting a case, motherboard, prossesser , hardrive and 1gb of ram from freecycle and the £20 pounds will be spent on evrything else from e-bay such as fans and a sound card and alot of other stuff. i will keep you posted on updates and eventually a video on the whole prosess. at the moment i am content with a laptop but soon i will need more power for video editing and its a fun project.
