My computer is going on five years old. For the last -say- three years, it's been making a sort of a grinding noise as it runs. I'm thinking, it's time to put the old girl out to pasture.
I need a new one, and I've been back and forth on what to get. At first I thought I'd replace the desktop, then I thought I should get a notebook. I thought it was brilliant. I could take it when I travel either to Norwalk or DC next year and still be able to do my homework like a good little nerd. It would also be so much smaller, and eliminate a good deal of bulk in the moving process.
Now, I'm thinking I won't be getting as much bang for my buck in the preformance category on a laptop. So, my newest (and maybe dullest) idea is to get a desktop, new, but then buy a laptop on Ebay for cheap.
Are there $10 laptops on Ebay? You betcha? Should I be scared of buying a $10 computer? Ya think?!? However, since I'll likely only be using the laptop for word processing, maybe cheap is the way to go. I feel as though my primary computer would be the desktop, so I'd appreciate as much preformance as I can afford there. I'll talk it over with those who often have more common sense than yours truly, but I just might have something here.
