   So did I.   
      
   In the 'old days' I used to assemble parts based on sale prices at my   
   nearby Fry's 'warehouse' (Fry's now dead), but the last few computers   
   I've bought weren't that type at all; also years ago now a couple of   
   refurb desktops w/ Win7, a refurb W10 laptop, an RPi3B+.  Most of the   
   old things I've assembled from case, mobo, etc have since died.   
      
   Lately I've been considering an RPi4 or 5 w/ 8G.  I've never gamed; I   
   don't need much in the way of resources.  If I'm in that seat over there   
   I can do OK w/ that 1G RPi3B+ w/ current 'Raspbian' (now RPi OS).   
      
   My most common mode of 'operation' is to have 2 separate desktops up,   
   sometimes 1 linux 1 W7 (for limited purposes), sometimes 2 linuxes.
