Last year I got a beautiful new HP laptop from my husband for Valentine’s Day. I have been pretty happy with my gift for the last year and a half. I have always been an HP customer and I have had desktops that lasted years and years with no issues. I am having issues with my laptop now. I guess I never expected that laptops would be less durable than desk top computers. I can understand why they would be since they are moved all over the place and not stationary on the desk. I just have found that after almost 2 years I have missing keys, battery life issues, charging issues and finally not enough laptop memory. I am having to delete things in order to save new items. I never had that issue with my desktop. I kept 8 years worth of information stored on that machine and never had to delete so I could save more. I know I can go in and add more memory and I am sure I can buy a new battery and maybe even get the missing key replaced. I just hate that I have to. It will be a far cry cheaper to replace the parts that are causing me stress than to buy a new laptop but it still peeves me a little. The problem? I couldn’t ever go back to a desk top now. I love being able to use my computer in whatever room I need to be in. I love that I can put it away when I am not using it and I don’t need to have a special desk and area of my home to keep it. I guess for now I will just need to give my laptop some TLC so that it will give me many more years of service.

It’s easy enough to make the “innards” of the laptop act like new, but you can spruce up the outside too! I’ve seen gorgeous covers that stick right on the top, kind of how you might cover a book. They have them at AC Moore and Staples.
