I have actually had three computers in my life that I owned, four if you count the one that my husband owned before we got married. It was a old CoCo. He still has it. It still runs. But I wanted something that I could actually understand and use. The old computer was good for online email lists but not for graphics at all. You had to know the computer language it spoke. My husband knows that, I don’t. Makes me dizzy.
When we got our next computer, it was a nice one, brand new…..we thought. We got it from a guy in business who said that he would build us a new computer. What he did not tell us was that many of the parts were older, used. We paid through the nose to learn that lesson. Next we got one online. It was used but very nice. By this time, we were buying them one for each of us. The only rub was that sometimes the video card did not match up with the computer. It was a major hassle until we were able to find the right one.
Since then, we have bought several used computers. My husband has assembled several himself. At this time, we have three in the house. One is an older computer that I had. Now it is used by our niece. She uses it for school work and, of course, for lots of games. Mine is a much better one than I have ever had before. Despite the fact that it’s older and probably out of date already, I do like it. My husband’s is one that he bought online and has had a problem with the motherboard. He had to replace that last year. Now, it’s a really good computer although it, too, is older and probably out of date. We do not care about that.
My newest quest is for a brand new laptop…NOT from that guy though. After a good deal of searching, I feel that the one I want is an Acer. I really like what people say about them. They have few bad reviews, it seems to be exactly what I want and isn’t too expensive. Now all I need is the money to pay for one!!!
