Computer Is Quitting.

When is it time for a new computer. My computer is so slow, I think it wants to quit on me. I know this because, it shuts down in the middle of my articles, my programs take ages to load, and it shuts off completely sometimes. Should I buy a new one or should I give it some more time?

A computer should last for five or six years or sometimes even seven or eight years but this one is not that old and it is giving a hard time. Although it is windows 7 (desktop) it should be still viable as many people are still using it.

If I have to buy a computer now, I will have to make choices on what kind of computer I would want. This is going to take up a lot of my time from doing my training, but again, I would benefit more from having a new one in the long run.

To make life easier with less frustration.

To make life easier for me, I am going to have this one cleaned up and have the programs reinstalled to make it much better for the computer speed. In this way I would have everything done properly in a shorter time and will avoid the frustration of not getting my work done.

Sometimes buying a new computer takes time especially if you can't decide on what you want to use. You coud spend a whole day looking for one and cannot make up your mind. That is why I will only focus on repairing this one now to save some time. I hope that it will work properly so that I can do my work with less stress.

I know that I will be behind with SWAG training, but I am not giving up. I am pushing forward and I know I will make the grade.
