When does one decide it's time for a new computer?


Do you wait until the old one dies?

When software seems to run slow?

Boot up time is annoying long?

I'm still running a "quad-core" intel processor, and getting the "itch" for a new build. My current machine has no problem doing basic stuff like hanging out in the Lounge, but when it comes to newer programs... I've been waiting for Intel to bring out the next generation of chips, but I guess I shouldn't hold my breath. They released the i9, and that's probably all we'll see for several years.
