My 10 year old windows 7 laptop bit the dust.  My 12 year old windows 7 desktop may be close behind.  So I looked around briefly.  Priced some items.  Took a chance on this one.  The only drawback is it is windows 10.  I upgraded a windows vista laptop to 10, and hated the result.  But waddayah gonna do.  I ain't going mac.  I did get a chromebook, and it is ok, but for this old guy, it has limitations.  Back in the good old days when I could buy a windows xp for 50 bucks, used, I heard that if it powers up, it'll probably work ok.  Well, that didn't necessarily pan out.  But hey, this powers up, has a good amount of RAM, plenty of storage, runs smooth, and I was careful to load the minimum of W10 stuff, so I don't get a bunch of notices.  I think I got a pretty good deal with this machine.  So far, so good.
