We need to upgrade the laptop, I think.
Acer 13"screen only used rarely and now no longer getting updates on windows XP. Does this mean it will self destruct in the near future?
It galls me having to upgrade when there's nowt wrong with it except being slow and it's run well for the last 10 or so years.
It mainly gets used for watching films from the external hard drive so we wouldn't mind a bigger screen. Don't have or want a tv, so what would be best?
New laptop with 15 or 17" screen?
Monitor 17/19" - what else would I need to get the film from hard drive to screen?
Would a tv be cheaper to just use as a monitor?
What would you do?
Oh yeah, remember someone mentioning a projector! That would work onto the kitchen window blind. Anyone got one?
Got sound sorted through the Klipsch speaker.
Thanks for any advice/suggestions.
