Buying New Computer; Any Advice/Rec's?

Hi All,
I am looking to buy a new computer.
After reading a few articles, I thought I knew what I wanted.
I went looking today and found myself more confused than before.
I have been determined that I should get:
128M, 700MHz, 30G Hard Drive, 17" monitor, CD-RW with 16M video.
I have been told that the chip does not matter much between Pentium III, Athlon, or AMD. And that I should try to stick with the majors (Compaq, Gateway, Dell, HP, Sony) to get good service.
Anybody have any other advice or recommendations? or Good or Bad experiences?
Thanks very much,
--Alan.
