Computer Buffs?

I'm with you Kanny, for browsing the Web a phone is much better than a laptop. If you're a blind cnut then consider a tablet instead.

I'm a blind, deaf kunt who has a perfectly serviceable 22" screen in front of him. And who's even, now, getting neck ache through craning forward to see That!

Please don't expect an old dog to just up and learn these new tricks. I tried that. Look where it's got me.

I'm just stuck in my ways. But, I'm not complaining. I don't. Ton, ton 'n half for a 'new' what I'm used to? Fine.

If anyone would just, Pul Eeeease refer to my initial post?

Seriously an iPad is piss easy to use, saying that they are quite expensive tbh.

Aaaarggghh!!! The link took me to the entire listing, Ted. Any particular one you feel might do? I won't hold you responsible! Just looking for a bit of guidance above the level of:

" Help! I have mice! "

'Get a cat.'

 

Greb; I've done over two decades, muddling through on Doze. Read my original post. " Under two ton ". And basic as shit. Apple doesn't even have those terms in their vocabulary.

Haven’t got a clue apart from don’t buy HP

go buy Lenovo lol

[Ken's Deputy 4,462]

What's so bad with HP? I've normally found them okay. I'd say avoid Dell like the fukking plague - yet people swear by them (Maybe office workers who don't see the yearly replacement bills?)

What's with " go buy Lenovo lol "?

Why is this the only forum on the internet where a man can ask: " How much does a pint of water weigh? " And get a reply like; " Pulled carpel tendon. "

I have only owned two laptops in the past 16 + years

bullet proof as good as

Okay. I now have a Lenovo ThinkCentre M91P SFF Desktop PC (Black) - (Intel Quad Core i5-2400 3.10 GHz, 8 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD, Windows 10 Pro) (Renewed)  in my basket. £165.00 to my door.

Obviously, I'll now sleep on it. Failing all else? I'll grab it, tomorrow

I have absolutely no idea what all those spec's stand for. But, people seemed to be finding it an honest, workmanlike little machine for fukking about on.

Decent spec that 

[Ken's Deputy 4,462]

Thanks, Bear. Nice to have an 'Outside' voice pop up, especially with a straight forward, no shit, opinion

I'm due an influx, by opening time. As long as I get up 'tomorrow' and find it in my bank? I'll hit that button. That'll be a load off my mind.

Christ! It'll be here, with its D Drive, just in time for me to Finally play a fukking CD I was sent this time a year ago. Never been able to listen to it yet.

I also seem to have seen that this shit's sold, basically, 'By / Through' Amazon, to the point that they give it a straight through, twelve month, cast iron, 'It'll Work!'  guarantee?

Suits me

They're made in China mate

Which one of you crafty fukkers nipped in and bought My computer?!? When I went to buy it, this morning, it was gone! Rotten fukkers!

I had to settle for one with 4 & 4, rather than the 8 & 8. Never mind. I'm sure it'll do for my purposes, anyway. Got to be better that this Linux shit show.

Made in chink, JJ? I'd imagine windoze 10 is too. I bought some rice, the other day. From Pak. They seem to base their entire fukking economy on producing basmati rice. If they grew that shit in Hertfordshire, I'd buy that. At least I Try fukking hard. I take it you're free of sin then?

Seriously, lads. I'm on a little thing here, ACER? Size of a box of chocolates but had no Disc Drive. I haven't been able to watch a DVD or listen to a CD for a year or two now.

And I let myself be convinced to put Linux on it. Big Fukking Mistake!!! That's now thrown me a wobbler and I can't do a damn thing about it. What might it do next? I'm aiming to jump before I'm pushed.

" Tablet "? I seriously don't know what they are. But, the pictures look small. I have a 22" screen and normal keyboard. I need this shit to function.

I loved 7 (Low Plains Drifter liked that. Because it was seven) But, shit myself and changed over when they said they were abandoning it. Now, I'm truly fukked.

Fuuckin DVD or CD lmao mate 

How much do you wanna spend? Let me know and I'll have a look for you and send you a few options later tonight
