Actually the BIOS went on my old computer and I just had a new one custom made with three hard drives, the "C" drive is a solid state one and the other two are for storage. A Military Class 2 Motherboard, top line graphics and sound cards, 8 gig RAM upgradable to 16 gig, Intel I7 4 core processor that runs at 3.6 meg but can be over driven to 6 meg which I won't do as I don't want to burn it out. Compared to this computer the old one was less than a Commodore 64. My first actual work on a computer was abut 45 years ago and they didn't even call it a computer. I worked at Bell Labs and we had some stuff that was years ahead of what they let out to the public and I am sure now they are even farther ahead. Technology is now measured in minutes and not months like it was back when I first started. But I struggle along the best I can.

Darn, it's hard to be stupid and try to sound intelligent.
