my laptop is dying

[Ickie]

my 7 year old laptop is dying and I need a new one
I have replaced the drive twice, and 5 keyboards and the battery twice, but it now takes forever to do anything.
I use it all day long.

here is a dream machine

Know how you feel Ickie. My old Vista/Packard Bell refused to boot this morning. I need a good mini gaming PC. Seen a nice one here http://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-i5-6400T-Quad-Core-Bluetooth-ZBOX-SN970-P-U/dp/B016QO3UJQ. It's a snip at £1005. Any chance of "crowd funding" it?
