Thanks again for all the helpful input in response to my
recent question: "What is your advice to update my system?"
After much research, I finally decided that, for my needs, the best
option was a used T420 Thinkpad. I've had excellent results with IBM
Thinkpads and never had one fail. Now they are all Lenovo, of course; and
I found one from a private party on Craigslist for $200 that looks
absolutely brand new, like it has never been used, and with 8-Gb RAM.
Lots of them on ebay for as little as $99 with no OS and priced all over
the map up to $500 and even more.
Now just need to flush the 500-gig hard drive and install Linux Mint and
I should be good to go for the next 5 years or longer.
