It’s that time of the decade again :(
Posted in science on June 14th, 2011 by RevStuMy least-favourite every-five-years task is buying a new PC. Not only because it costs as much as a car, but because it means days and days of horrible tedious work just getting everything re-installed, and all you end up with for spending hundreds of pounds is something that does what your existing PC ought to be able to do already, but can't because inevitably by this point it's a broken-down heap of junk choked with garbage that runs like a noisy toilet.
So, does anyone want to recommend me someplace or some person where/from whom to buy a vaguely-useable machine that I'll only have to sell at most one internal organ to pay for? Requirements follow.
