True, but I meant storage of my personal files/pics/programs. A big part of the reason I still have my old Gateway - all of my purchased software is loaded on it. Newer systems rely on cloud based software services and in many cases the last I checked, the end user can no longer buy/own the executables and store them on their local systems. My system is stand-alone and essentially pre-cloud. I use the kindle for web browsing so my old Gateway Desktop essentially only handles business email, business letters, excel spreadsheets, some powerpoint based promotional stuff, a few old MS Project files of my past endeavors, etc.
