Good bye lousy super cheap desktop
My desktop has died. It's really quite tragic and it was 2 months after the 1 year warranty was up. Should have gotten the extended one!
My super old laptop which I bought the desktop to replace because it was making funny hard drive noises is still alive, kicking, and making funny hard drive noises.
The worst thing about this is that the hard drive on the desk top was bigger than any of my backup harddrive, so I don't have everything backed up. I have this hope that maybe it wasn't the hard drive that died and I might be able to resurrect it, but I know just about nothing about hardware. I mean, I can install ram... but that's about it.
So what am I going to do about it? Probably buy another super cheap desktop. Will I ever learn? No. Will I get a warranty this time? Possibly. Though this is the first computer ever to die on me... and I've had... well, 4.
