Unjustifiable upgrades
I want a faster CPU and RAM, but can't find any justification for the
upgrade. It's simply a matter of ::stamping foot:: I WANT IT. I don't have a reason, I just want it. I can't decide whether or not to deplore myself for this. Comments? |

I'm going from a P4 2.4C/Radeon 9700np, in 2 days, to a P4 3.0C/Asus Radeon
9800XT....TOTALLY unjustified. But, will it make me happy? You bet. - ToolPackinMama stood up at show-n-tell, in , and said: I want a faster CPU and RAM, but can't find any justification for the upgrade. It's simply a matter of ::stamping foot:: I WANT IT.

Well, you are young only once but you can be immature forever. :) Personally, I am well over 60 so I am enjoying my second childhood, only this time I have money. Indulge yourself. Walker1940 |

When I upgrade, my older son in college gets my old mb/cpu/ram, and my 7 year old son get's the innerds of his computer. You just have to establish this upgrade hierarchy and your family becomes your upgrade support group. ..... they have no idea they're being used as upgrade cheerleaders...... ~~~~~~ Bait for spammers: root@localhost postmaster@localhost admin@localhost abuse@localhost ] ~~~~~~ Remove "spamless" to email me. |
