My old computer died on the weekend, and since I basically do everything on it, I needed to replace it, but money is a huge issue so I needed something affordable.

I wound up getting a refurbished Dell for only 499 which is a lot cheaper than new. I'm really happy with it so far. It's much faster than my old computer and the video quality is better when I stream stuff. So overall I'm pretty happy with it.

I hope you were able to hang onto your old storage drive(s) and/or salvage any important files from it/them. If you use Windows OS I also hope you have success on removing all bloatware and unnecessary and forced MS restrictions and for lack of a better term... Windows crap. This is a very good program for that and it's free if you're comfortable w/ using CMD lines using PowerShell or Terminal. If you aren't comfortable with that you can get an .exe version for just $10. It's a really good program that allows you to remove so many unnecessary and annoying things MS puts into W10 and W11. You will like your new machine even more.
