What PC Do I Actually Need?
Shops love selling you more computer than you need. Three questions, and this tells you the honest minimum spec — and what's genuinely worth paying extra for.

2. How many things open at once?
3. How long should it last?
Your honest spec
Buying second-hand or in a sale? Send the listing before you pay — a two-minute look spots the lemons. That advice is free too.
