Why do you need a desktop or laptop? Is there some specific application software you are using? I stopped using Windows computers five years ago. I replaced it with an Apple Mac Mini for those occasions when I need a full size keyboard and mouse and big screen and printers, etc. but 95% of the time (like now) I’m using an iPad (WiFi and 3G) on the couch, at the breakfast table, on the porch, down the street, on the plane.

WHEW !

TONS of advice and information here ...

Thanx, all

I DO have one parameter I neglected to mention ... I need a larger screen because of my eyes so the smaller notebooks, pads etc., are out.

I have a 17" monitor now and I think I saw an 18 1/2 ... I'll probably spring for that if I put this together piecemeal.

ALSO ... I cannot ... repeat ... I CANNOT get the hang of flippin' my finger in place of a mouse ... I'm locked into the 90's and I'll stay here 'til I die.
