man, oh man.
I haven't bought a computer in I don't know how long.
Mainly, I just get the cast offs from my extended family. I let them buy the newest and best and just use their old stuff. I have 2 desktops and 2 laptops, all cast offs. It's fine for my purposes. 99% of what I do is internet browsing, word processing, spreadsheets, VOIP and a few other low resource apps. Why do I need a brand new computer? What do I care if the chassis is ugly or not? Who cares about the "looks" of it? I mean, sure, if I worked in some area with intensive CPU stuff, like graphics, I can understand that. But I don't, and 90% of the world does not. My parents got a new computer last year, they went from an i7 to an i7, their old computer is 8 years old, everything works in a flash, still super fast.
A freaking i5 from 10 years ago is just fine. It's how I've always done it. I mean, if I purchased the two towers and two laptops brand new, in cash money, that would be $6000 or something like that. That would get me a lot of blow and hookers in Vegas. Let's keep our priorities straight, folks. For women..it would buy one little container of high-end mascara, so that's all to the good. Priorities.
