RIP My Desktop

I am currently on my Laptop.

I went to turn on my Desktop today and it shorted out. :( This kind of hurts.  This is my Desktop that Forum User landbeforetimelover helped me get the parts for and me and my dad put together some time ago.  I had it for around a decade.  After all this time, it has met it's end.  I feel it had a good run.

This is also the Desktop that I did a lot of early videos on.  I did quite a bit on it.  It's been reformatted multiple times and has had it's share of problems, but it's finally met it's end.

I'm about to (hopefully) get a new part-time job.  I'm not leaving my current job.  This is just something on the side to get me some extra cash. (Which I need at this point.) The job requires a computer and I was planning to use my Desktop for it.  Guess that's out of the question at this point.  Forced to use my Laptop, I guess.

I was able to take the test on my Laptop.  Here's hoping I passed.  If I did, I plan to put a portion of the money towards a new Desktop, eventually. (This will be after the other bills I need to pay.)

I won't have a new Desktop for a while.  So, in the meantime, I'll be on my Laptop.

Here's hoping for the best.

See ya later! :wave

Sorry to hear that. Especially when there's a lot ofold memories and works, related to your PC.
