Look at you Lizzie!
You are the first person I know who has a miniPC!
What do you think of it?
Personally speaking I love tech and think keeping up with the youngsters helps keep us young at heart!

Hi Ed, that's my son's work!
He bought it in the Netherlands, set up a family dropbox so all my files are there, my passwords are stored in 1password, and added all the programs I use so it was ready for me when I arrived there. Made life so much easier when I was there; laptops just add to one's luggage weight,
It's amazing, no lagging like my laptop, and does everything I need to do! It has 16GB RAM and 512GB ROM, whatever that means, but as I mentioned, all my files are stored in dropbox;) I really cannot see any difference in the performance between the mini-pc and my bulky pc!
I can also simply pop it into my bag when visiting them next time, and of course easily hide it in the nether depths when no one is home all day.
Unfortunately, that's how we have to live in crime-ridden SA where TVs, laptops and PC's are top of the 'shopping list!'
My son bought himself a more powerful one, but I don't think he uses it for gaming; he's a die-hard Warcraft gamer!
I'm often afraid of new technology (like CAD way back when!), but it is exciting when I see how much more one can do. Technology evolves at an amazing pace!
