Hahaha yeah, thanks for the awesome comment man!
I as well tend to stick to my gadgets and tech until they are on their last legs. I don't want to say what phone is next to me, but it's not an iPhone 17 that's for damn sure LOL
Funny enough, I am one of those people that people go to for help. Given I work in the IT industry, but I've always had a passion about the stuff even if my initial work and training was in something in a much different field. I was able to combine and meld them together into a pretty awesome mixture!
I was often tasked with helping the heads of departments and other areas with setting up or fixing their phones, computers and other things. I didn't mind, as it was a lot of fun, and got to know them a lot better which was cool!
Glad you have a better working computer, it is for sure companies throttling the devices and that in itself is very frustrating! I am going to ride out this current computer as long as I can, but I do have another one sitting nearby that I got from work that I am going to flip over soon enough!
I didn't get one yet, I couldn't make up my mind so I went for the one year extension. Maybe around the holidays the one I wanted the most will come down in price.
Yeah I remember you saying you didn't opt for the new one, but at least got yours working! So that's good, sucks to have a really shitty performing computer lol. My phone is brutal, but I am refusing to upgrade until it's time!
