Hi all,

Pushing 50 now, dinosaur gamer from way back in the day of BBS pre-world wide web days. Spent years building my own rigs and I finally quit a couple years ago and went to the convenience of a laptop.

Now its time for a upgrade and I am going to plunk down on a Harker in the next week or so. I run my laptops into a large display and use them as desktops more often than not. However, when I want to take it with me nothing beats the ability to do so.

I have scoured the forums, read reviews all over the place and now I believe if I do not stop I may very well pop a vein in my forehead. So you will have a new customer soon and I look forward to being a part of the family.

Thanks for listening to my "Brouhaha, boulderdash, ballyhoo";name that tune; life long guitarist here too!

Peace

Hi OneEyeRed.... I'm 66 and hopefully still have a couple of decades left in gaming.    Can you imagine what games will look like in a decade.

Too funny!   

The real question is will we be able to see them haha! Everyone screaming 4k, 4k, right now and I have severe allergies and see through haze most days anyhow. My 1080P is sufficient enough for me honestly.

Maybe that is why so many of us get along so well on this forum (a rarity for tech forums anymore), it's because we're all geezers.

I kid, I kid. Hahaha

But stay off my lawn. Cool
