As if automotive matters haven't been annoying enough lately, my laptop seems to be ready for cyber-hospice. It fell about one time too many, and DH was unable to do a lot on the repair front. As of right now, the space bar is intermittent at best, I had great difficulty convincing the touchpad to right-click after rebooting, and it's getting steadily trickier to position the top to avoid horrible noises that sound like something's crunching the fan.
Browsing laptops in my price range (under about $350) is frustrating. Most candidates have too little RAM (current one has 8GB and I'm quite reluctant to downgrade) or have rather small SSD storage instead of actual hard drives of useful capacity for my needs. I do insist on keeping my files local instead of in cloud storage for the most part.
Ugh.
