Congrats. again, BrownEyedTigre

But you absolutely got to me, !!
So I am going to bite the bullet right now !! Watch out for my thread

Glad to hear of your new computer, Ana. It sounds like a great system and a really good deal. Though I was sorry that I didn't see any mention of turbo on turbo.

I tried to spec out the same system you described on ecollege but my figures were always a little higher, even with the 5% savings.

I can't wait till I can get a new system. I'm going to dance around the room for a while once it arrives.

@Mad - You too?! eCollege? Can't wait to see what you order.

Oh, the humanity! Where are the Publisher's Clearing House Award people when you need them?

Mad won't be able to order from eCollegePC as they are a small local business. However CyberPower does build in the UK!

My Son in Law will be doing the build for me, Draclvr, so I'm OK as regards that

Sharon, I started with the Intel Gaming System and then clicked the customize button to chamnge a few things.

Mad, Glad you are able to get one put together! How exciting.

Ana

Mad, I'm excited for you! Woohoo!!

I'm over excited NOW so what I'll be like when it's built I dread to think

Of course, I probably won't have a clue as to how to actually use it - so that will sober me up

How are you getting on, BrownEyedTigre

I am waiting for the "your computer has shipped" email Mad and hoping it comes soon. I only had to shut down my computer twice yesterday to let it rest and then it behaved. It's difficult and unnerving to work on a deadline and pray that the computer stays running.

You will love your new set-up I am sure Mad.

Agggghhhh !! I'll keep all fingers and toes crossed then till your new machine arrives !! All rather nerve-wracking for you

Ana I'm also keeping fingers crossed and saying a prayer that your system doesn't fail on you before you get your new one. I feel quite excited for both you and Mad to be getting new systems.

Although I know that getting a new system for you is a requirement for your livelihood and a whole new layer of stress, I still feel happy for you to get a new system for any reason.

Not sure I expressed myself well.

I understood that quite well Sharon. I am excited, it's always fun to get a new toy. I just wish the new toys wouldn't be so expensive.

Do we raise eyebrows because of the cost or because we know the cost of getting one? In other words, what does it cost us to pay the price for a new PC?

Or to put it in the words of traveler..."The main reason we have houses is to keep the rain off our computers."

Hey, I'm in Bartlett's?

Trav

I'm lost, but that's okay.
