I committed computer.
\nDell has a 300.00 off sale going on, and that brought this one into affordability, a Latitude E5550, which is, I hope, in the ‘reliable workhorse’ category. My own system is wheezing under the load, and its second extension of warranty is running out next month, after having provided me 2-3 keyboards and a new screen. This Latitude D810 has served me since late 2003 or early 2004, and will go on serving as a travel machine—I can do routine operations like keyboard replacement, which ought to keep it operating.
\nAbove all, I was able to get the pointing stick as an option: that’s what sold me that this is the time to make the move. I rely on that solely, and am just lost without it, and finding it as an option is getting harder than it once was. The system has no software but Windows, but I have software to put on it, and that will do just fine, granted I can get it to run with Win 7. We do have a new Word Perfect, which I know will work, and that’s the essential thing.<\/p>\n
