Here’s some great news for our United States customers who want to cut the costs of sending their kids to college!
Under the new American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, taxpayers who buy Desktop Computers for their children in 2009 and 2010 can claim those desktop pcs as qualified higher education expenses.
The Act defines computer-related qualified expenses as any expense incurred for buying any computer technology and equipment, as well as Internet access and related services as long as the equipment and technology is used by the student and the student’s family during any of the years the student is enrolled at an eligible educational institution.
All of you who have college-aged kids know that tuition cost have skyrocketed – so this additional perk is a welcome benefit. Now this tax break is only in effect through 2010, so those who have children in college or kids ready to start school in September need to start shopping for new PCs.
Selecting a Desktop Computer
Selecting a good desktop computer can be a daunting task. Not because there’s
a shortage of outstanding desktop PCs on the market. In fact, the opposite is
true. The list of high-quality personal computers could fill a phone book –
eMachines,
Gateway,
Cybertron,
HP/Compaq,
Visionman,
Systemax
and iBuypower and their various models, to name just a few. For instance, are you
searching for a media center personal computer? Are you looking for a desktop
computer that your kids can use for schoolwork? Maybe you’re operating a home business
and you need a couple of desktop computers that can take care of all your administrative
and networking demands. Some folks buy a desktop pc system as a spare - a backup
in case the primary desktop PC is on the fritz. And many first-time desktop computer buyers are swayed
by the sexiest ads and all the bells and whistles. While we believe that nearly
everyone would benefit by owning a desktop, it’s a good idea to take a step
back and decide exactly what you’re going to do with the desktop PC once you buy it.
That way you avoid purchasing a computer system that’s way too advanced for
your needs, or conversely one that’s ill equipped to meet your demands.
TD is the only place I buy computer parts
first started using TD back in like 2003, when I was in the process of building my first computer. I bought everything I needed on TD at that time, and I've bought little upgrades here and there since. Well, now it's 2010 and that computer I built is still running strong!! TD has never let me down, I would definitely reccommend them to anyone.
