  Money is not really an issue.  I am cheap when it comes to me 

  I don't need the bells and whistles 

. I am a low tech kind of person.  I don't text message for example and for my age group 20-somethings this is practically unheard of.  I am not tied to technology in my daily life other than my DVR which I can't and won't live without.  I don't have Internet right now but borrow WiFi from others 

. When and if I do start school again I will get the Internet and then drop it the day I finish!  If I am done with school and the computer dies it will matter little to me because it did not matter before.  I was done with my BSN and had paper copies of all my papers- Safely stored away 

 as well as on flash drives 
 
 
I just don't think I should need to spend $1,000+ to get a decent computer.  I do plan to wait for a sale/deal!
