[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1646133, member: 56379"] This may be a great strategy for "pots & pans"…but it ain't going to work very well for computers!;) If you had an original 1984 Mac computer…with this logic…you would have a VERY difficult time getting on & using the internet!;) Also in 2015 (or 5, 10 , 15, or more years from now). Try giving those kids a 1984 computer…and just see how excited they get (not very excited)!:( Bottom line. That logic may work for pots & pans. But not computers!:) - Nick p.s. I wanted to add that I'm a big fan of older hardware & older software. So I have no problems getting as much "mileage" out of our computer purchases as possible. But eventually we need to update/upgrade our equipment (hardware & software). Many times this is not a choice…it is mandatory. And this is where the "one-time purchase of pots & pans that we can hand down to our kids" logic just doesn't work for computers.;) [/QUOTE]
