My computer sadness...

After several years with my other computer and a few repairs; each time waiting its turn in line of several others computers at the computer doctor, I finally broke down and got another one. Thank goodness for tax returns and the price of electronics going down! I got a better computer for the same price as it would have cost me to get a new Motherboard. (which was the new problem...)

How nice it is to be typing and not have the computer automatically shut down, because it overheats. It's such a blessing to have the kids looking up something for their homework and retrieve it before it shut down. And how wonderful it is to have working speakers! (the same ones mind you as before, it was a bad video and sound card too.)

Unfortunately our lives have necessitated the use of computers in our homes whether it's for homework, work work, staying in touch with friends, etc. It's just amazing that in my lifetime I have seen computers go from giant ones to hand-held ones.

I am so thankful that electronics are now so affordable!
