[QUOTE="quad, post: 16281231, member: 17952"] Nice. My computer is a little over 2 years old now. I don't plan on upgrading for another 8 years. When I build computers they last for 10 years +. I have rigs that still work and are 15-20 years old. But they became too slow. I still have them and will probably hold on to them out of curiosity. We had an original IBM XT in South Africa from 1986 and is lost now. I don't know what happened to it since it was in my sister's house when I left SA. I asked her if she knew where it was and she did not even reply. I would have had it shipped to the USA if it was still there. It had a Hercules graphics card, turbo, 640 KB memory and a green monochrome screen and those large floppy disks. We later added a VGA card and 14" color monitor to it and I did an animation of Italy kicking Sicily which then became a soccer ball in 1990 for the World Cup Soccer. I was also able to morph faces of family members - can't believe I could do that with such limited resources. [/QUOTE]
