As you may remember, I work a job where I'm siting on my ass at work waiting for trouble calls to fix equipment. One of my coworkers has the dragon, with the SSD. I is so nice to see his boot.
Don't blink!
I didn't plan to buy this, initial. I bought a hotspot so could use my old laptop at work. The hotspot doesn't downgrade in security for it. I decided then, as the computer was becoming less useful in other ways t replace it. I didn't even plan, or need such a sweet computer when I bought it. My minimum standard was the full HD screen. I gravitated toward the higher end, because this older laptop I have is still mostly usable. It was $1,300 new, over a decade ago.
Since then, I found "Kerbal Space Program." The game becomes very CPU intensive if you build rockets, stations, etc with over 500 parts. Mine starts to get unmanageable at about 2,200 parts, and crashes sometimes. I think is the memory mostly... running out if it. I know I should check the resources, but I'm just using it as an excuse to put an 8 gig module in the empty memory slot. Anyway, if I knew I would buy and like this game as much as I do, I would have paid the nearly $2k for the MSI Dragon.
The CPU in my new tower is a little faster yet, but it only has the 720 Graphics card. I have contemplated buying a very fast GPU card and putting that 720 in my XP Lenovo computer. It will actually fit in the mini desktop case.
Most people's computer will not handle building and launching this:
In orbit, ready for refueling and off to another planet:
I made a stable orbit with so little fuel remaining. I used the last of it to clean up the orbit a little.
that's a lot of rockets...
