Should You Get PC or Mac?
The list of the best computer manufacturers as seen in 1995. Who’s the best computer manufacturer? It depends on your price range. Tim Albano, staff editor at PC Magazine, gives the inside skinny on who makes the best computers. Albano says that finding a good company isn’t difficult; it’s more a matter of deciding how much you can spend and where you want to shop – by mail order or at a store.
Top of the Line: If you can afford it, buy one of the top-of-the line computers made by the companies listed below. They also offer less expensive models, but those lower-end machines don’t always offer the most bang for your buck. These computers are available in almost all computer super stores. Almost no business is done directly.
Apple Computer Inc., One Infinite Loop Cupertino, CA 95014.
Compaq Computer Corp. PO 692000, M120208, Houston, TX 78727.
Hewlett-Packard, 3000 Hanover St. Palo Alto, CA 94304.
IBM Personal Computer Corp. Route 100 Somers, NY 10589.
Micron Computer Inc. 915 East Karchner Road. Nampa, ID 83687.
Second Tier: Purchased at retail store or ordered from a mail-order company, these machines aren’t necessarily second rate – they’re just a tad less glamorous and pricey. These are good choices if you’re on a budget but want solid, state of the art equipment. As always, however, compare prices before buying.
