I remember the times my computer was a real mine of information, music, documents and so on. What was the impact it had on my life and on my computer’s life?
Music, documents, images, information, anything. This is what my computer used to have. When I wanted to listen to something I only had to open Windows Media Player or any other of the six players I had installed or just to search for it. When I wanted to find a document I only had to type a sentence or a part of the tittle to get it back and when I wanted to see again some web page I saved sometime ago I only had to go to my Document’s folder.
This kind of digital life was very risky. I already lost more than 6 hard disks in my entire life and I had no backups at that time, either because I postponed until the disaster or because I was too young to understand how to make one. The second thing is that you have more music and text and entertainment in your computer than you can pay attention to in your entire life, even if you do it 24/7. Simply too much. Another thing was the performance impact it had. The computer would take more than ten minutes just to load windows, much less to open anything. Searches, even the indexed files would take too long, I would have no patience to wait for it.
Software was also on my disk, not some software but all the software I could get for free. Repair software, performance software, hard disk software, Ram software, Cpu software, internet software, Firefox software, Google software and so on. That was so much that my windows vista laptop went straight to the shop to be formatted.
The results? I spent too much time and some money tuning a computer that would crash soon or later and now I would have to do it all over again.
Conclusion: It’s just not worth to spend any time or money in computer performance or maintenance. The computer will crash soon or will just become obsolete.
