I am on a 6 year old computer playing 10 year old games. I don't see a need to upgrade anytime soon.

I'm on a 5 year old computer playing 20-30 year old games. I'm good over here. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I bet WoW runs like a dream on that machine ๐Ÿ˜‚

I haven't tried it! That would be like giving a reformed crack addict a hit off the pipe. ๐Ÿ˜‚ No way can I ever even consider going back to that game.

If it makes you feel better, it will never be the same as it was when you first played. Every time there is a xpac that looks interesting I have tried and failed to get that feeling back. It devolves very quickly into feeling like a job again.

I do hate being in the never ending upgrade cycle but the 10 year old games are limited, at least the ones I like to play.
