Advice

Everybody knows that computers stink. Yours may not be giving you trouble at the moment. You might lovingly spray it with concentrated air to keep it clean and caress it's screen with cleaning wipes to save it's beautiful artificial glow. But here's the straight dope, jack: It will eventually fail you. No matter how much antivirus and malware protection you have on that sucker, it's eventually going to die, and it will piss you off when it does. So back up your computer, and back it up often. Yeah, it might seem like a waste of money to go buy an external hard drive just to back up your perfectly running computer. But it will be worth it. You will be happy. And while you are at it, switch to Firefox and use a bookmark add on so you don't lose all your bookmarks, too. Personal experience, so take it and use it.
