I contacted a guy who runs a computer repair service, to see if he had any old units (tower, hard-drive; the big rectangular box) for sale, as I'm starting to get weary of this old library computer with Windows98 (I am however grateful to have it).
He got back to me, telling me he doesn't have any old units gathering dust (although he'll look around), but then suggested he "builds" computers, and thought I might be interested.
Well, I sort of am, and sort of amn't.
I just want (as he knows) a simple basic fundamental computer, without all the bells and whistles and bright flashing lights and sounds. I don't do music, I don't do movies, I don't do radio, I don't do television, I don't do video games.
So I don't need any of that crap.
I'm looking for a Model T, not a DeLorean.
I haven't gotten back to him yet, and I know others can only speculate, but does one suppose he'll charge big bucks, medium bucks, or small bucks, for building such a thing?
Damn, I hate being incompetent.
