If I have an opinion that differs from someone elses, and if I think another opinion is bad advice, I have every right to express it in a civil manner.  And indeed, I may be helping people by doing so 

 

Just because someone expresses an opinion doesn't mean that it can't or shouldn't be challenged.  Your argument implies that all opinions are equal and that there is no reason to challenge an opinion you disagree with.  I'll let list members decide if they believe mine or the original opinion is better.  I won't argue the question.  Some people may decide neither is better.

I don't think it is good procedure to give general advice such as to get the best computer you can afford.  Would you tell someone to get the most expensive car or stereo or television they can afford?  A lot of people don't need anything more than a computer in the moderate price range.  They don't need machines designed for power users or gamers.  In addition, some people may not care if they have an SSD or not.  I don't.  My computer is plenty fast for my needs and desires. 

 

Get the best you can afford is as bad general advice for computers as for anything else you are contemplating purchasing.
