The tech at Staples told me tonight that the best PC for recording was an HP, but not what they sell at Staples. He recommended going to the HP website.

I went there to get Microsoft Access software, and realized that if I put it on the dying desktop, that would use up my license and it would be no good when I get a new computer. Used to be that you could buy software and use it on any computer. Now it communicates with the home planet and only lets you install it on the specific computers that are licensed to use it.

Not happy.
