My daughter killed her laptop and I inherited it. After some CPR it's running pretty good.
My desktop is a desktop dinasour, but if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
I am probably the only one left running IE 6.0 .. refusing to upgrade on this PC to 7.0 LOL!
And hoping never to upgrade to Vista anytime soon.
3 Years. In dog years, that makes him (Bob) 21!
Moses brought it down off the mounatin with him
Hi, Commodore 64 speaking here...cough cough... just kidding.
Mine is 4 years old exactly and no reason in sight to get rid of it despite heavy use.
You should get to know my mom. We have kept most of our computers, even after they quit working. We had one we named "Slow boat" and that was an old Packard Bell from ?? I know the early 1990's. It was kind of a tragic loss because we had a lot of old DOS games installed on it like Rampage (good memories of being the wolf smashing down buildings and eating people, yum) and Life and Death (a mock operation, pulling out someone's appendex, mostly killing people in the process, fun)
And a number of other cool really old games. Oh and it had windows. Windows 3.5, that is. Anyone remember that? One of my favorite windows games was SimAnt. I also played Sim City 2000 at school on their old computers.
My mom collects computers. One of her hobbies is to fix them up and repair them. One of the things she hopes to do is build her own computers if she hasn't built a few already. She told me if mine is to give out she will likely provide me with a new one.
