Random thoughts about using computers to do things. Presently using an Alienware Aurora Desktop (Windows 10) , a Dell XPS 13 developer edition (Ubuntu 19.04) a Dell Precision M2800 laptop (Windows 10), a Mac Mini, an Apple iPhone 7, an Apple iPad 6, a Samsung Galaxy S8, a Samsung Tab A (2018), an iPod Classic 160GB plus CD's, DVD's, USB keys, and zip disks everywhere. Enjoy learning computing with me.

Next laptop will be build from parts.
A DIY laptop I have had my eyes on is on clearance sale now. This week they are also offering a rebate on this laptop so today after work I may go and buy one. I would still need to buy a CPU, memory and hard drive. I have read some reviews and it looks like it will make an excellent dual boot machine. I have a copy of SAS, and a copy of Arc View I can legally install on this. I also have a copy of Office 2007 I can install legally. I have 160$ saved up but need 800$ then will get 200$ back in the rebate. So in the end I will have spent 440$ more than I have saved.
