Possible new PC in the future

 According to my tags here, I acquired this recent PC -- a Lenovo ideacentre 720, which they no longer make -- about this time in 2019. I've had a few issues on this one as of late, starting maybe a few months ago when it started to slow up considerably and lose internet connectivity. I took the nuclear option and did a complete factory reset, which let me upgrade to Windows 11, and that seemed to fix things...for a bit. Lately it's been crashing and rebooting itself, usually overnight when something is running in the background, and the connectivity is showing up more often than usual now. This is worrying considering that I don't want to lose anything important, and it's hard to keep my Plex server up when it keeps disconnecting.

That said, this one's served me really well and for the longest period of time, so maybe it's time to retire this one and upgrade. I'll stick with Lenovo for now because a) aside from the current problems, I've had nearly no other issues at all, and b) they're having a sale and I believe A might be able to get a further discount! Not sure when it'll happen, but maybe soon. I'll figure out a place to store this one as an emergency backup, maybe move/toss a few things in Spare Oom closet so I can park it there. We shall see...

EDIT: We've just ordered a Lenovo ideacentre 3i, which is similar to the one I have minus the cd/dvd drive and slightly lower storage space but a slightly higher processor. I'm fine without the drive because I so rarely use it (and I have an external dvd/blu-ray/rw drive that takes its place), and the only in-PC storage I use these days is for software, and 1TB is more than enough space for me. Everything else is on multiple externals!

Here's to hoping this fixes all my current PC issues!
