Re: The honeymoon is over
... last transformative upgrade to PCs was ...
Late 2015, went from a rather oldish P4 3.0Gb/2Gb, Matrox 650 and Adaptec SCSI3 card to a practically new basic Sun Ultra 24 which I upgraded with Q9550 + 8Gb + 2x NVidiaFX580 cards and an IBM SAS 3.0 controller with 4x 80Gb unused spares.
It's been a few years now and I can still use my Umax S-5E without any issues. 8^D
Save replacing the drives with 4x300Gb unused spares I got last year for ~US$100, everything has run perfectly well and don't expect to do much else with the exception of replacing the two oldest monitors, a pair Samsung SyncMaster 940n.
