I have a high end Dell Alienware gaming computer, my second one. It is used for all of the other basic computer duties also. The striking difference is when I help my wife with something on her fairly new Sony computer and realize how much slower it is. Granted if you haven't been on a hi power computer you may not notice this difference in speed but I appreciate being able to fly around what i'm doing whether email, maps, nav, videos etc. I didn't get a SSD but backup continuously off site to Carbonite. Throughout the years I have had to change hard drives and getting my data back from them was seamless and accurate. My computer was purchased this year for just under $2000.00
