Is that one a Mac? Sounds strange, never had anything like that, and I'm on my third Mac. My brother didn't mention anything about such problems, either - and I've given up to try and track his computers.

Ah, that would explain it, I guess. And not easily mended, save you could take it apart ... if it's not already too late for that  Well, good luck in getting the right one! |

The latter requirement would probably be the hardest ... IMO the electronic devices have a shorter and shorter life. My first laptop was still going (though slowly) after 6 years, despite falling down half the staircase and having a fissure across half of the back of the screen. The second one had a HD crash after only 5 months, ended up with trackpad problems and getting way too hot after about four years. Now I am on the third one, it's two and a half year old and I wonder how long it will survive ... only last weekend the 'r' key kept hopping out of the keyboard for no reason at all.

Honestly, if you really want a computer for your purposes, find a decent tech forum, and outline your goals. Odds are the techs on there can find a really cheap base laptop and other upgrade parts that would get you to your goals and even higher for much cheaper than buying a laptop to your goals.
