*laughs* Computer challenged is an understatement.

Creature of habit not fond of having to change, who's head implodes or explodes whatevers reading duel core processors, quads, i3 i5 iwhatevers, of 3GB, 4GB, 8GB of new systems that offer way more junk and stuff that I want or need just to do what I just want to DO on puter without zillions of options of whatisthat for and why would I even want it all ?

I just to play UO a 12 yr old game classic client on some new fangled pc and connection more modern than my Win XP on dialup using a real mouse more than this silly lil mouse box square flat thingie on hubbys soundless wireless Vista laptop. :sad2:

I don't wanna face book nor skype, nor make movies of photos, nor even slap photos on my hard drive sent to me from my kid of our grand kid even, I tell her send me real photos in the snail mail of grandson.

I have only owned 2 pcs desktop Gateways. My win 95 lasted till 2003, when the XP was new, when I got win xp so my gateways both served me well for many years even with pokey dial up for playing UO for 12 yrs now. :)

Hubby gets discounts on Dells, so one of those seems the obvious solution, but I am not locked into his discounts per say on brands. But I probably should go with the discount atop discount, that Dell offers via his discount. One that offers the best reliable way to play uo, with it's mega downloads thus faster speed than what my dial up can do, primarily classic client, a pc laptop or desktop with out a ton of bs I am not into wanting in a new pc of any brands.:confused:

PS. I am even paranoid pc challenged to fathom how does one even GO from dial up to something else & do it right so it worked. Hense why I never changed from dial up to dsl or whatevers, no clue how and if it was working & NOT BROKE, why change it ?

But now I know I have to move forward OR exit puters for good, in fear.:sad3:

Ok then, all tech talk aside. Anything current from any of the major PC manufacturers will run the UO classic client and run it well. As some others have said, spring for the biggest monitor your budget will allow, and focus on upgrading your internet connection first.

Thank you.

I downloaded UO for my new laptop from the link posted above, and after a short while slightly over an hour I was in the game on my new Studio 17 i7 laptop. I will keep my WIN XP on dial up running till this new fangled thing is totally set up and no glitches. So far ...so good though. :)
