I think it might be time to finally get rid of Old Faithful (my desktop PC). She's getting slower all the time and despite clearing things out she only has a 40GB hard drive so she gets full quite quickly.

She's been with me for about 7 years now but since Jacqui and I both have shiny new laptops I'd rather use the desk space for a computer I actually use. The only thing I use Old Faithful for these days is downloading shows and I can do that on my laptop

*sniff*

I feel the same way about my car. I've had her for 12½ years!

Wow! I'd keep my PC if I used her but I just don't

Wow!
Of course, I'm used to old cars working well. Lots of people around here have cars from the 70s.

That's the beauty of upgrading! There's still a piece of them with you.

Seven years?! I've been through about three pc's and teo laptops in that time.

Hee! Well, I was thinking of upgrading but I really don't use it that much. I like my handy portable laptop

I love mine too, but it's still nice to have a big screen and a decent keyboard. Plus the laptop will always be harder to upgrade. Still, lots of people just use laptops now, they aren't the expense they used to be.

I always seem drawn to HP ones. They have some gorgeous machines at the moment I'm lusting after.

Hehe! Yeah, already looking at my next laptop when there's nothing at all wrong with the one I have at the moment

Nothing wrong in feeling them up in PC World. It's not being unfaithful, honest, they let anyone touch them.

Hee!! I'll remember that next time I'm in there

Just wash your hands afterwards.
