    Bought a new computer again.

    What a trip to get it set up. Old one wouldn't support Windows 11 on motherboard.

    Did get a curved screen 34 in and that's just amazing. Now to hire a 10 year old to figure out how to install from one to the other.

    Must say it's easier to get on this site.

    I used to dread moving to a new computer but it has become far less of a hassle with leased software.

    Curious - leased software? Does that mean you must continue to pay for it?

    Yes it does. All of my Microsoft software including office suite and Visio, AutoCAD, and PDF Pro plus a few other engineering programs.

    That's why I use Apache Open Office. I am not going to pay to lease software
