I used to love to fool around with my PC. The last few days. I'm going to need a new PC. It's in the agenda, for early next year.
Now my tinkering involves new product and making it work. I still may have to build it or choose to.
My thoughts. It's probably time for you too.
Figuring out the old hardware, no longer worth my time. Cost are low. After Christmas. My new PC.
But again, I used to enjoy Irq challenges. Now, No.
Just no. I will enjoy the challenge of building a new one. Instead. Good luck.
