Japan is great place to buy computers, electronic devices and every kind of gizmos. Clerks are so kind and they always try to help you at best, and I really like their service. Of course sometimes this make me to forget to use caution.
I was looking for a cheap computer. But the store clerk I met, had a different plan for me.

- Welcome to Computer Paradise Store Japan. I’m Hishida. How can I help you?
- I’m looking for a computer, a cheap one, I also need a cheap monitor and a cheap internet connection.
- Oh sir, all those things will give you a cheap life indeed.
- Well is not a good moment, but I have to change my PC, so…
- May I suggest you a different approach?
- What do you mean?
- Let’s consider what is inside a PC: how to choose your processor?
- Checking the price?
- Wrong! You have to put a lot of money in your CPU, it is the heart of you computer
- Well, but I can’t afford it
- It is a matter of money: if after 2 months your computer can’t open the new games, what to do?
- Avoiding to play?
- Wrong! You have to change processor, and now think about to buy a new CPU every 2 month
- Scaring
- Now you understand!
- Well so I have to buy a good CPU, so at least I can buy a cheap memory
- Excuse me sir, but you are wrong again. Memory is so important. And there are a lot of them to choose the best: DIMM, SDRAMM, RIMM, all exist to make you choose the best.
- Ok, but I need cheap memory for a cheap computer with a good CPU
- But a good CPU needs good memory, how can a SUV car run without his fuel?
- I’m starting to get the point, but my money…
- Every time you add a new hardware component to your pc, you have to buy it, right?
- Yes
- And how often do you change video card, or hard disk or the memory?
- Considering my computer is not so old, I made it very often, and now I need also a new one, since the old one is unable to do the work I need.
- So what about to buy a solution that give you the opportunity to avoid you to buy a new computer very often?
- Would be great, but it’s impossible
- So you are here at PC Paradise Store Japan any future, Hishida is here to help you. I help every day hundred of customer to choose the best for them. Do you trust in me?
- Yes, but my money…
- Listen to me: a good CPU needs a good memory. But where everything is plugged in?
- The motherboard?
- You are right! The motherboard is the key!
- So I need a good motherboard, I presume
- Exactly! The best that money can buy!
- Well so I can’t buy such a great motherboard, I have a limited amount, I told you.

- Follow my idea. A good motherboard is the place where the good process and the good memory can live long and prosper. You can’t give a small ugly house to your family, and memory and CPU are like a family because these pieces alone can only starve and die.
-That’s impressing.
- So put all your money in the motherboard, you will not regret it.
- But the other components? The monitor for example? Do I need a cheap monitor?
- Of course not
- I’m getting confuse: how can buy a good monitor?
- You miss a point: your health.
- What about it?
- Your eyes, sir, your eyes! Think about spending many hours in front a cheap monitor. What do you think will happen to your eyes?
- I don’t know.
- There is nothing worse for eyes than a cheap monitor.
- Probably you are right.
- Of course, I help every day hundred of customer to choose the best for them. And you also need a wonderful video card to manage a good monitor.
- But it will be expansive.
- Not more expansive than you think, but consider the colours.
- Colours?
- Yes, how many colours do you want?
- Well, all I think. For sure I do not need a computer without some colours.
- Right! You can’t miss for sure some colours, so to see all of them you need a powerful video card.
- I start to understand. So I hope to save some money with other components, like the hard disk.
- Sir, I'm sorry to destroy your illusions, but you are completly wrong. How you can trust in a cheap hard disk? Imagine all your data, your photos, your songs, your video, imagine your work in a cheap hard disk ready to die one day soon or later.
- I have to say there is a good sense in what are you saying. So I have to buy a good had disk?
- The best one! Luckly here at Computer Paradise Store Japan we have the best choices and the best prices.
- I feel better now.

Crazy for gizmos!

- And a computer is not a computer without a DVD-RW 8000x!
- Sure! And you here luckly have the best choices and the best prices, I presume
- Of course sir, and much more: the best software for your DVD player.
- The last thing: a cheap internet connection.
- Sir, I'll let our internet center talk by itself. Please take a look.
- Astounding!
- This is our internet connection. Then now try a cheap one.
- Terrible!!

An hour after, I bought my wonderful computer. It was the best computer, me and Hishida were sure of it.
A fter 5 years, I'm still paying, and my pc is old and slow. But I don't want to change, I have the best computer!
Thanks to Hishida, I said goodbye forever to my cheap life.
