Almost time for a new computer!

You know the lifespan of a computer is about 5 years they say, between programs and software going obsolete, to crashes due to who knows what, not to mention viruses, apps that inject all kinds of nasties, etc out there, it is like a drive by shooting sometimes.

My pc has very fast connections, but lately has slowed down to a crawl. I have looked at the new models of pc's, everything from Sony brands to an
asus laptop and there are some pretty good bargains out there. Hopefully it will be a painless search lol!

One thing is for sure, I was lucky enough to get one of the last XP's when I got this one, I will NOT be buying any product with the name Vista on it.
If you all have any suggestions or advice, please do make a comment on this subject.

The Bakery Truck

Thanks for the post, Vernon Lowe

Waiting tables was getting really old, but I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do with my life other than be in food. I’d always been really good at baking, so I started exploring the idea of starting a bakery truck, you know, like those food trucks that are all the rage right now? The concept was that my truck would be like a moving bake sale…who doesn’t love cookies and cupcakes? To get started, I knew I needed to buy a domain name and get a website up so my brother Ken volunteered to help me with all the computer stuff. I also had to get a payment system together and also find a truck. That would be a pretty crucial part of the business! I found the perfect, shiny truck at a nearby used car lot and a few thousand dollars later, it was mine. One hand painted sign and a few dozen pounds of baked goods and I was ready to roll! Business has been booming and I’d say that my bakery truck was a raving success!
