I always buy off the shelf computer because I never like computer that are built. The primary reason is that I never like the case that you can buy. None is as nice as off the shelf ones.
When it comes to computers, my only consideration is the look of the case.

Amen, Brother. Life is too short to be mean to other people, just because you think you can.

Very well stated. I hope 2024 will bring more kindness...everywhere, not just here. As far as what one can afford, I remember what my hero, (my dad) told me when I was very young. "From saving, comes having."

So difficult to read your rant! Have you never attended school and learned to write in paragraphs that are coherent in thought? Ramblings such as your rarely get looked at past the third sentence.
I did not write for eloquence, for a term paper, or for your grade. I was simply putting down thoughts as they came to me. You are welcome to not read my posts if they cause you pain.

Come to think of it. I don't like phone camera but as one person asked the question over the Main Photography section of recommending him a simple camera. He used his camera to take picture of the bottom of his feet and think about it that job is much better done with the phone than with a camera.

With all of the good advice out there offered up so eagerly, it makes me wonder how I’ve made it this far in life without it!
All too often, people that give lots of advice to others seldom accept advice from others.
Most generally things aren’t as simple as they seem on the surface. Do a little digging and that good advice you gave initially might not sound so good on second thought.
With my town job, I often meet landowners at their property. I normally “visit” a lot before I get down to business. During that visit I can usually get an idea of their financial situation, likes and dislikes and so on. This helps me offer up suggestions that are more likely to their liking and within their budget. I sometimes realize that there isn’t really anything I can help with. Some people just want to show off what they have and others just want to complain.

Well said. I hope it's read and understood by those who think they have all the answers and quickly criticized others.
