I have a new computer, and it's all thanks to some very kind people! Thank you, everyone! <3

It's not top of the line or anything, but it's a huge change from my old one. Eight cores, 1 gig video, 2 ter hard drive.. I went with an HP. Not a great brand, but it has a warranty and all that rot, and it was the right price - ready right on the spot. Checked out building a pc and everything was more expensive.

Do hate Win8, but a tiny program called Classic Shell helps put the start menu back. The only problem I've had was the initial WTF over where things were in Win8. After that everything went smooth. Never had a tablet of any kind, so this was a huge change in OS. It was as bad as people have been telling me it was. Good for tablets maybe, but it's pretty lousy for PCs. (Win8.1 is said to be changing things. Will look forward to that.)

Was amused and tried to stream in HD. The internet connection choked on it, but the pc ran like a trooper with no problems at all. I should be able to stream more often now, even if I'm still limited to mostly days.

And it was damn funny that my whole old hd is a small wedge in the space of the new one. I don't have space issues anymore. o.o I was running on around 170 gig, and now have two terrabites. Or however it's spelled.
