What model PC did you actually get?4 SD cards that are 64GB can't fill up a normal new desktop. That's not even a quarter of the available HDD space

I wonder if you downloaded your pics directly to the cloud folder on the new PC. Even the cheapest dell desktop has 1TB of HDD. You'd literally need a million pics to eat up that. This is exactly what I was thinking. In regards to "very few programs" coming with it... I wish the computers I've purchased over the past ten years came with just plain factory Windows. I've had to spend hours cleaning all of the bloatware off of them.

Best Buy sent a shipping label we jumped on that today the 15 day return policy was up Sunday it’s easier to return on the web then in person, ID and credit card required in person wife would not be with me so that might be a problem on the last day, no thanks. Will see what the offer is on that rifle, at least I'll get what I need without the fluff they try to sell you.

I used to end up buying a new table top or laptop every 3 years or so. In 2009 I bought a Mac Book Pro and am still using it. Needs some work but it works. I have a Mac book Air that may be 7 or 8 years old t hat works pretty well. The next computer will be a Mac. In my experience they are a lot less trouble. Mac

I've had to spend hours cleaning all of the bloatware off of them. The monitor only had 2 icons so we were not sure what programs were even on the thing it had zero instructions except for pics of how to plug it in and put it together, then it asks questions I cannot answer I’m not sure if I need it or they are trying to sell me something I don’t need. Dell went way cheap it just looks and feels cheap like low bid stuff.

I’ll go with the custom built one Dell has gone to the dark China side like so many other companies living off their good names. It’s amazing what they charge us for junk now for what they want us to pay. I think dollar for dollar I will get way better quality with less hassle in the end going this way, if we trade I’ll get a really good deal then on the SKS deal.

Dell and Lenovo as of 2019 are the most US based computers you can buy China right on it?
