“I even prefer an old fashioned desk-top - don’t know how anyone really WORKS on a laptop.”
My desktop died so I’ve been using a laptop. It’s an aggravating toy. Later this week I’ll be ordering a NEW Windows 7 desktop from NIXSYS. They have a section of “legacy” computers and will build Windows 7 and XP desktops.
We’re looking for a new desktop, too. Freeper GaltAdonis posted about mini computers, which I hadn’t heard of, and I’d really like one if it works with everything we use. (We run Linux, and don’t do anything very complicated; but we have lots of things we plug into the computer):

Also, these don’t seem to have CD/DVD drives, so I assume you’d need an external drive for them.
