I have a question for you all.

My old dear boxen, the one that carried photoshop for me for many years is dead as far as the hard drive goes. The shop says that they can back up all the files but not the programs.

If I want a PC for at home to dialup the modem, I have two options.

Buy a new harddrive for the old boxen.

Buy a new Boxen (much more expensive)

either way it'd mean I'd get to stop using Martin's slow-ass over-ridden PC.

My main concern for the new box is the difficulty on finding anyone selling a box with a modem. They just aren't available anymore.

On the other hand, the new disk drive could be a problem. Depending on the age of the box the hard drive may be IDE, which is another thing not really available anymore.

From what the shop tech said, they had hardrives compatible with the box in stock still.

I'll ask them to install one for me. (has all technical skills of peanutbutter)
