Raspberry Pi 3? Depends on what you want really. I just got an HP xw8600 for Angie's office. With 10GB of RAM its pretty sweet with Windows 7 or even 10. Its the same machine we've got at home. Ex-video production machine was top of the line in 2009.The replacement for it was the Z800, the single processor version was the Z400, any would be an excellent choice for home use. The Z series are really quiet... -Curt

My 8 year old HP is now spontaeously turning it's self off. Diagnostics said that the memory failed the test, so I bought new Kingston DIMMs and installed them. It's still doing the same thing, so I'm thinking the mother board has a bad chip or something. I'm thinking I'd rather build a new one from scratch to avoid all the bloatware that comes iwth a new PC. Any recommendations for hardware these days? I haven't bought such since mid 2000's. -- OK Don *“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.”* – Mark Twain "There are three kinds of men: The ones that learns by reading.
