When your objective does not change, why should your hardware and
software change? Most home users are doing very simple tasks on their
PC and yet we have convinced them they need a machine that is as fast
as the ones used by animators at Pixar. I guess it is just me but my
97 Honda gets me up to the Publix just as well as a brand new Bugatti
would. I do not measure my self worth by things I have acquired.
Has nothing to do with self worth Greg. It has everthing to do with
when the damn thing stops working after 8 or 9 years and you don't feel
like getting involved with swapping parts or fixing it. A computer,
especially a laptop, is basically a throw away item to me when it craps
out after using it for that long.
Think of it this way. In the past 10 years I've purchased two
computers, both laptops. I still am using the second one I purchased.
Neither were "top of the line" but they also weren't the most inexpensive.
So, how many have you bought or acquired second hand in the past 10 years?
