My current computer I made 5 1/2 years ago. It was made before USB
2.0 and Serial were invented. Now it has slow USB two replaced fans a
replaced power supply and has two old hard drives.
Looks like buying anew computer is a good idea but serial ports were
invented more than 5-1/2 years ago. Just trivia.
This new one lets me buy new hard drives of the fast 3.0 GB/sec
serial type and the cpu is twice as fast as this one. I don't really
need that. The box I buy has new fans and is half the size of my current
one.
