If you want the domain, definitely buy the .com, and if that gets a lot of traffic, then pick up a few typos. But the typos aren't worth anything if there's no traffic or revenue.

should i go off the word that has the searches to try and get typos? or should i find big companies dealing with them and find typos from their sites? (example, i computers has like 2million and something, so computer.com w/ a typo or dell.com w/ typo? or do both work just as well?

My recommendation would be to stay away from typos.

If you find good keywords and available .coms, buy them. Then try to sell the domains or develope them.

Often times typos don't work out, you don't know if there's traffic to them until you buy it, and if not then it's a waste.

It's risky business typoing a TMed name like Dell. For typos to be worth their trouble, you need to typo a domain that gets significant traffic - IMO >1000 OVT w/extension.

I'd start with things you know about and look for unregistered names in those categories. Sometimes you can find some good traffic names here on NP for cheap too.
