Thanks guys,

I know I have the internet, but I'm computer retarded, so I don't know what to look for or what's a good price. Researching does nothing for me because I'm ignorant as to what all the technobabble means and how it relates to anything. I'm the ultimate plug-and-play user. I just want to pay money and not a lot of it at that.

I'll be purchasing in the United States, and I play on a widescreen monitor. I don't know if it has higher resolution (probably does) but I only have ever been able to play on 1024 x 768. I remember upgrading from 640 x 480! I know what the minimum requirements are, but I don't know what they cost or if its cheaper to buy from a store or the internet. So, I want you to tell me what to do. I don't want to think about it or do any work beyond writing this post, reading responses, and paying as little money as possible. I'm relying on you to not get ripped off.

As far as "suggested specs", the box has the bare bones requirements and then the "suggested" specs which I presume are to run at maxed out settings. The components are different in both lists. I'd like your responses - again in American dollars - to help a valued member of the Org. Thank you for the previous responses and those to follow.
