If so, do you plan to buy another one when that one goes kaput ?
If not, do you ever plan to purchase one ?
I'll be honest, I'm trying to get my arms around the home desktop market.
I own Intel stock, & the slowdown in this segment has held it back for the last 4 or 5 years.
My personal opinion is that the home desktop market will never reach the old levels of success. Many people, & the vast majority of younger people, are using their phones and/or tablets it seems.
I'll always want/prefer a desktop at home.
I have a 20 inch iMac that I bought new in May 2008.
Can't remember the name of the original operating system, upgraded to snow leopard, then mountain lion, & last week to OS X El Capitan.
Definitely slower on start up, but other than that it works great.
The only other upgrade was the memory. Upped it from 2 to 6 GB.
