Thanks!
How you doing? (as Joey would say!). Hope you are kicking the insomnia/fatigue rather than the other way round. How's the sun where you are? So far so good here, has been okish, but a bit colder today.
Going back to the original convo, I've only ever seen new windows laptops or mac's for sale both online and in shops. Where would I look for a linux model? And what is linux like compared to windows? I've only ever used windows, never even used a mac before. I actually have a phobia against Apple, as like Amazon and their Kindle stuff they browbeat you into their product monopoly and I refuse to be dictated to like that.
My current machine really is not worth me spending any more money on,
, it really is a monster now! It is coming up for 8 years old, which proably means more like 9 'cos how TF do we know how long they stay on the shelves for before they're sold?
And TBH I don't like the idea of buying a refurbished machine, you don't get the same level of cover as you do when you buy new. Not that I'm in a position to buy anything yet, but when the time comes (hopefully later this year) after such a long time I think I deserve something sparkly and new... yes that's a tad shallow but it's also how it is.
