For the basics of my PC, now just hoping that it will get to me on time for my brother to get it fixed before I have to move out.
Still missing: harddrive, graphics card, peripherals.
Also need to buy a digital camera, being that I need one deserately to take photos of my friends before we all part. However, here's the question. Canon has a really cheap camera and printer bundle that would set me back a light 80 bucks. However, canon also has a TERRIBLE reputation for customer service and faults with its cameras. My hardly used S45 broke down after barely a year. And do not buy an ixus because of something called E18 which basically renders your camera useless since fixing it probably costs more than a new camera. (*lol* on a slightly pokey note, good thing I'm talking about a corporation instead of a government body.. scully they sue me for *gasp* libel)
So the question is should I get a different brand instead, paying more on the assumption that it would last me longer. *sigh* The problem is paying more really means 3 or 4 times the price. And the camera plus printer thing seems like a good deal since if you think about it, I would essentially be getting either the printer or the camera for free. (Nevermind the fact that I don't really need a new printer)
Of course, deal or not if a new camera dies after one month or a few weeks I'd be severely pissed.
