I got my first desktop from Sears (if you can believe it) back in the 90's. It's about the size of a Buick, been moved from one end of the country to the other, dropped to the floor, is slow as hell and still going strong. Now a days, it seems these laptops can barely survive the ride home from the store. I guess it's now just the world we live in, as soon as some new piece of tech bullshit comes along, we all feel like were gonna die if we don't have...like I really need to know what temperature my fridge is when I'm on vacation.

Working with computers myself I know there is a lot off crap out there.
Here in Norway we not have Sears, Best Buy, Walmart but we still can buy crap in other stores.
Not only computers but everything as you knows....
Latest was a cheap t-shirts I bought the other day and it ripped when I was getting it on.
Yeah, I might be a bit chubby but no reason for it to rip in half.
Complained about it and them offered a new t-shirt, exactly same.
I said "Well I be back tomorrow then!"
I remember my old "High tower" in the 90's as big as a house (almost).
Weighted more than me or that what I felt it weighted.
Dragged it around, painted it, used it as a bench or a table for stuff.
Was built to last, thick metal shelf and huge components.
When I bought a new computer I gave it away to a friend.
He had it for several years before he trashed it.
I stay with my stationary at home, built it in 2012 and never actually finish it (Info on my "Profile page").
Tune and tweak it for my use and it still kicks ass compare to many machines out there.
Lots of funny "not needed" tech stuff out there, that for sure.
Like the Japanese toilet fountains that been out forever.
Or the toilet radio, well that can be useful if you plan a long visit.
OK, enough crap from me for now, have a great day!

Norway? Is that the land of beautiful blondes and night 365 days a year? I surprised you have time for computers.

A friend of mine and I went to Canada once and stopped at a duty-free store on the US side. It was full of Canadians buying cigarettes and liquor, all of which was about a third of the price they pay in their own country. I don't see how you guys pay such high prices AND pay such high taxes. Do you only eat once a week or something?

I told her she didn't need all that lighter fluid for the bar-b-que grill.

Thanks. I think they put in timers to make 'em crap out on some sort of schedule.

Look up the word 'idiot' in the dictionary and you'll see a picture of Ron.

My first computer lasted about 7 years, my second 3 and this one less than a year. Is it me or is there a Chinese plot going on to get me to buy more shitty stuff?

You may be right about the plot...
