I was still eyeballing that seagate hybrid SSD drive for my laptop if I don't have a spot for a second drive I think that would be ideal. Plus I would like to up the ram in that from 4 to 8 gigs.

I wish I could be more confident of my income at the new job, I would really like to build a new desktop too. I could probably sell this one for a few hundred bucks to offset my costs, it does still zip along pretty good for an "antique". The average person would think it's fast as hell.

I'm surprised you guys are so far behind with internet infrastructure. Most of Europe is waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of the US in speeds and networks. I'm just lucky I live in a major city or else I wouldn't be getting speeds anywhere close to what I do. They are still improving the network in Denver.

We are upgrading to "DOCSIS3" (whatever the hell that means) It's a noticeable speed boost. Was looking at my modem/router/wifi combo one day and noticed the light for download had turned from green to blue, had to look up what the hell that meant. :mrgreen:

Not bad, a lot less stressful, I'm pretty much left alone to do my work. Have kids to sweep up after me, take out my trash, they even bring the cars to me.

Place has got some issues though, been too much corruption going on at the top for too long. They are so busy cutting costs to pocket money on the sly that they are stepping over dollars to pick up dimes. The place has so much potential but those in control are too narrow minded to see it.
