Also a Dell fanboy but I'd consider something else if I was building a desktop and willing to install Windows. Dell bloat is better than most but not zero and as mentioned their weird upgrade blocks can bite you. These days by the time I've read all the fine print to figure that last part out I could have installed Windows. Maybe Asus?Quote:

I always build my own but it’s been more than 6 years since the last build so I am totally out of touch on what’s hot. PC are a commodity. All pretty mush the same if you use it for basics: web, documents, etc. if you are into games, photo/video editing, CAD, you’ll need better/expensive hardware.Quote:

I’ve skied with him, he seems resilient, don’t count him out yet.
I just hope there wasn't some unfortunate incident where that aftermarket AMG shift knob broke off and he was behind the wheel of an out of control Sonata.
But I gotta have faith in what you say.
Wait, did the summit county sheriff finally extradite him?Quote:

I hear it’s nice this time of year though.
I agree, but Mars and the American Milky Way are exactly the same.Quote:

Maybe DD will make an end of the year appearance. It could be a TGR xmas miracle.
Yup. Canadian and UK Mars = US Milky Way. Milky Way sold elsewhere in the world = 3 Musketeers in US and Canada.Quote:

You can do it 3 ways. Either purchase the prebuilt- Major companies PC's (Lenovo, Dell, HP, then after those you have Acer and Asus and a few others). Best to stay with their business class line-ups (even if you have to go to the Outlet or get returned from corp leases on a used system.) Then if it has some utilities or software you do not want, Use the Control Panel, Programs and uninstall the unwanted packages. Second possibility- If there are too many, then just download the Windows 10 for your system and reformat and install new from the USB drive you create is another option. Probably have a few drivers to chase and reinstall after you are done, but Win 10 is usually picking up the majority of the main hardware devices.Quote:

Gigabyte or Asus motherboards and then pick your CPU, ram, SSD drive, etc. This with a Windows 10 license is now many times more money than the name brand systems and you still have the build time or paying a shop for the build and the Windows OS (oem version) and then you do the Windows installation that you purchased. A bit more tech if you want to do the build yourself and a risk of something not going right (just like someone without the knowledge trying to mount their own skis and bindings properly and drilling in too far or not getting the screws in properly...)
Are they?Quote:

That sounds more like Easter.Quote:

As an adult, I've observed that chocolate (and food in general) on the east side of the Atlantic is better. Same thing could apply, but I think it actually is better.
It must have something to do with the metric system...Quote:

Most of the southern and eastern PA with more than an inch or 2 (other than like to Poconos) - Philly for sure. South of that below the Mason Dixon- DC and Virginia, even New York City can be a problem from what I always see on the news, and any of the major metro areas that are not up in New England or further north upstate NY. 10 to 12 inches in the snow belts are just a minor inconvenience where you have to maybe wait an hour or 2 to clear the snow via plows (roads and parking lots), get the snow blowers going for the drive or a bit of shoveling the walks or a short driveway.Quote:

I have one kid, and she's in public school. But it's not nearly as cheap as you'd imagine, between after school stuff and sports and the fact that the older they get, the more you have to buy good quality gear for them.Quote:

For reference, I got some LL Bean top and bottoms as a gift forever ago and I’ve skied like 1000 days in and they’re finally starting to disintegrate. They’re like fleece, just a really really thin fleece.
