Thanks, I was just wondering. I try to be nice to mine, I set it on old plastic cassette tape boxes I got at a thrift store and turn a small fan on if it seems to be getting warm. I think it is getting a little funky but it is going on 5 years now so may be entering screen senility. I think it was a mid-priced HP. My sis's Apple that died an early death was expensive and she was not happy, the dealership offered her a fix that cost so much it was cheaper to by another computer.
