Re: I'm old 70+, the 70K system is old; good or bad omen?

Re: I'm old 70+, the 70K system is old; good or bad omen?
There's a philosophical point where you say: 1) these might be bad, I'll replace then all. 2) I'll only replace the ones that I know are bad. To me, it depends on how difficult it would be to replace,

Re: 8341A *restoration adventure*
