The Intel Atom 2 (a Foxconn 525) sizzled completely. I've bought only one AMD (an old Athlon) in my life. So I'm contemplating a 3Ghz-and-up AMD - for low bucks. Eh?
The (offline) Intel Atom 1 (Foxconn 330) has
been working just fine - but the keyboard sizzled.
With a new keyboard it is working just fine.
But hey - a new machine is needed.
(years ago.) Worked great. Until it no longer did (at all).
And the very ancient Celeron D (on which I'm posting this)
is a trooper - and still working at this moment.
Anybody got any ideas?
On reputable mail-oder places - not just machines.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

This website sometimes has some outstanding deals. Before Christmas they had a pretty good Asus Laptop for $300. They have desktops on specials too. This sounds pretty good: *NEW* Acer Aspire AT3-600-UR33 Celeron G1620 LGA1155, 4GB, 500GB Windows 8 Desktop PC for $179.99
Sounds pretty good - but now that I think of it, AMD APU FM2 5300 3.4GHz DUAL CORE BAREBONES DESKTOP - $217.00. 3.4GHz is FAST - ain't it? I'm coming to conclusion that if I want a fast fast, it's gonna be
DDR4 is already out.
What is the benefit of DDR4 other than speed? I don't need the latest/fastest/bestest/mammy-jammy thing -
CUSTOM AMD APU FM2 5300 3.4GHz DUAL CORE BAREBONES GAMING DESKTOP PC SYSTEM $217.00 Or the Dell 2.93 GHZ (Itel) - It comes down to AMD or Intel - bottom line.
If your looking for a portable computer. Here is a 25 pound one.
That looks familiar isn't that the one you had at Homers place?
Where is/was 'Homer's' place? There used to be 'Rick's' place - the bachelor pad - But when I was off on a (pleasure) trip, Rick wrecked That was decades ago. Yamaha 650 Heritage Special - A fun bike - and low cost.

I want FAST - as in FAST FAST. The following does not have any memory -
but I have a few random memory sticks floating around.
It also does not include a hard drive - but I recently bought a
'4 terrabyte' external USB drive (which actually turned out to be 3.4 TB).
So I'll buy a 250GB (or 500GB) to boot from - use the 340 TB for everything else.
some bucks bucks. But at least it's pretty spiffy looking...

DDR4 is already out.
