[QUOTE="anothertsg, post: 78272, member: 4712"] Actually, no. Here is why. Today's computers run much much hotter than previous generations of pc's and they're built with cheaper components. They run faster and are asked to do much much more. I live in the south, so in the long summer months there are bunches of pc's running in 100 + degree heat and 80% humidity with no ventilation, and COVERED in center grime and filth. They fail over and over and over. Local techs used to have lots of spare machines, but those are in ragged shape now, too, and many are out of warranty. Then UPS keeps adding more and more applications which require support. Corp IE is terrible about releasing "unsupported" software we are required to support. Anybody want to add to this?? BTW - I believe Tieguy is having a dandy 'ole time getting everyone stirred up. He's not looking for support, he's enjoying the argument. He finds this entire thread entertaining. [/QUOTE]
