So an update on the computer… I thought that the power supply had blown, which would have been about $100 to fix but come to find out, the motherboard is blown, which is the equivalent of the engine in your car needing to be replaced… and if I wanted to replace the motherboard, they would have to rip it out of some used or refurbished 4-year old computer and it would cost a lot and it’s not a guarantee that it would last very long either. I’m not gonna do it.

So we are getting a new one. Merry Christmas to us!
