Computer Build Project

e14 Contributor

Hello,

 

 

I would love it if you took a moment to check out my GoFundMe campaign:

 

 

https://www.gofundme.com/qjr4sk44?pc=expt_em_co_shareflow_m_89_2&rcid=47510020e01b11e59b25bc764e05901c

 

 

Your support would mean a lot to me. Thank you so much!

  • Usually the value of desktop PCs drops loads, I would probably have trouble giving away a machine here, even though it may be usable but old.

    Another option is a Pi 3 - by some accounts it is usable as a desktop machine although it is not a compete replacement. By the way computers are changing, and the majority of computers out there in the world are no longer desktop machines, but instead are microcontrollers running machines. Soon they will be communicating to each other and doing more. That would be an area to investigate if you're interested.

    I'll have to look into that idea. I do like the sound of it. I have heard of raspberry pi but never to use it in a desktop.

         The gofundme requests I have seen have been more humanitarian like a car accident leaves someone with hospital bills that cannot be paid. But not like I want a Ferrari and cannot make enough. When I wanted a 10 speed bicycle, my parents had a suggestion. "go get a job". I see you like fishing. Have you considered something along a guide? Use your abilities and I bet you can come up with more(better) ideas and have fun too.

    Not a bad idea many make a steady penny from Guiding or using their hobby/skills in a proffitable fashion.

    Sounds like he's unlikely to make his money but maybe get something more useful if he wants to take it up!
