Sweetwater computer

Does anyone have any experience with purchasing a desktop PC from sweetwater? I'm looking at getting a good PC for recording and I'm not familiar enough to build my own (I don't think), and the sweetwater computers look like pretty good value for the comp you get. I'm sorry if this has been discussed previousy, but I searched and couldn't find any material. Thanks

understanding headroom -- dBv, dBu, VU primer ?

Reasonably new to this. This question arises from my search for a new/new-to-me preamp to replace my mobilePre
(which, not surprisingly, doesn't provide tracks which stack particularly quietly).

I believe that I understand the concept of headroom (i.e. - how hot a (mic) signal can the preamp handle?),
but not the measurement units.

Recording 4 member band opinions...separate or together?

Hey geniuses. I'm in a high school sophomore in a band (bass, drums, guitar/vocals) and we are planning to start recording soon. We play pop punk and modern rock mostly i would say. We don't have enough money for studio time yet, but we want to make a quality demo making due with our own equipment. I would be using garageband or Cubase to record us using the Lexicon Lambda interface.
