I have an eight-year-old laptop that needs replacing and I’m paralyzed. What are the most reliable ones now? Do I need a desktop for CAD? Pros and cons of operating systems (and where do I find them?) Browsers ditto? Where do I find answers that aren’t just product marketing?
“Where can a Boomer catch up on current computer/software technology?”
“The library” is a valid answer to where you can find information, though I doubt computer purchasing info would be that great.
“I have an eight-year-old laptop that needs replacing and I’m paralyzed.”
If I understand correctly, “paralyzed” is being used metaphorically here to describe an inability to make a purchasing decision.
However, libraries are one of the best places people with disabilities can go. They are usually set up with accessibility in mind and run by caring people.
If you doubt the purchasing info would be that great, I doubt you’ve been to a library with trained librarians.
