lilpeanut Posted July 3, 2011 ID:448637 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Ok. As long as it's a common occurrence that I've been lucky enough to avoid for this long on this puter I would say there's prolly no reason to scan it.I found some webpages, like surpluscomputers.com that I might be able to grab a new puter from in a few months. Just want to be sure this one lasts that long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-FRED-BROWN Posted July 3, 2011 ID:448639 Share Posted July 3, 2011 If you are looking for a computer, I would suggest you browse around some of the pawn shops/second-hand stores (if there are any) that you may live by. I've found several very good computers at pawn shops before, and you can usually find them at significantly reduced prices compared to brand new ones.

lilpeanut Posted July 3, 2011 ID:448641 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Oh My, I never thought of that. Just moved to Misery err...Missouri less than 2 yrs ago and was astounded at the number of pawn shops here. Came from Central NY. Pawn Shops are few and far between where I came from. Still getting used to Missouri. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-FRED-BROWN Posted July 3, 2011 ID:448643 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Hehe they're everywhere in the midwest! Try looking around some time, I'm sure you can find a pretty good computer for a reasonable price In case you wondered, its standard procedure to revert them to factory settings, so that way you won't get any of the previous user's data (and malware hehe ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilpeanut Posted July 3, 2011 ID:448646 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I guess I should look around the next time I go into town. Won't be able to buy anything for awhile but at least I can get a good idea of what is out there and what kind of prices there are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
