We have been using a OLD HP computer for years. I have timed it and from when you turned it on it would take 5 minutes to get to the web. I hit the overtime hard the end of last month and treated us to a new iMac (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Man o man what a change (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) the letters show up on the monitor when I type them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I should have done this a long time ago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)

... the letters show up on the monitor when I type them ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) I know what you mean. My computer is first generation. Well, Ok, second gen, about 1996. And that my kids have screemin' fast boxes and laptops and smatphones and digital everything. Alright, I've got a pretty good laptop too, and there is a powerfull family box (wife's ebay machine mostly), I built up a couple of years ago, but my usual vehicle of choice for the info highway is an overclocked 11 year old 486 Pentium II with a gig of memory. I can't help it, I just like to keep the old stuff (the 914, the computer, the bicycle, even the old body itself) going and going and going. |
