Tell me, what do you use to contribute to these forums?

Yes I know.
I expect a max of three years before the requirments for normal web surfing are too great for the simple machine I have. That will be it. I'm not spending hundreds, thousands of dollars a year to check my emails and watch documentaries. Life is too valuable to spend it working. And with the tax system as it is, it is criminal to pay tax, and buying a computer finances the resource wars in central Africa for transister components, kills Iraqis to produce the plastic casing, and enslaves young Asian women to assemble.
So, as I say, three years max. Electronics is bad stuff, never mind post consumer, or the alienated drone it turns you into.
