I just got my new PC in the mail that I was able to save up for and get thanks to Steemit.

My last PC was on it's last leg. It was a "meh" laptop that was getting to othe point of being nearly unusable. I couldn't really get photoshop to run well and it started freezing constantly. Since I need photoshop for my art which helps me make money and keeps me happy this was a big issue. This computer is such a big deal for me. A life-changing big deal that I have wanted for many years and need now more than ever to keep me entertained while I am confined to my home as I battle my disease.

Look at this beautiful, glowing beast of a machine:

Not only is it going to be great for working, which it is, but it will help me be able to have adventures. You see, I am very physically disabled and haven't much been able to leave my home in years which is driving me mad. I am now able to play any game pretty much with max settings. I have already started playing "Life is Strange" and Skyrim's special edition, remastered. It looks beautiful!

I bought dud speakers though and have to return them.

---

They were really nice speakers that were about $150 and had a subwoofer. Brand was klipsch and they are known for being great PC speakers. Unfortunately, the jerk who sold em to me refurbed on amazon sent me a worthless set. The cord soldered onto these was the wrong cord entirely. No prongs. So it was like a female cord which was impossible to plug in. Also, everything was covered in white paint and gunk which I painstakingly peeled off by hand before realizing these won't work.

Needless to say I was turned off by amazon, refurbed, and klipsch due to the awful experience so I found some speakers on Newegg by Creative and bought em with bitcoin.

I also got a refurbished 25" monitor.

Again, all of this was bought with my SBD. I am beyond grateful and blown away. I just can't believe how great this PC works. I haven't ever had a nice PC and didn't have a console or TV which was really rough since I am confined to my room. The games will help so much. Especially when I can afford a VR headset. :)

I can't wait to install the adobe creative suite and try out my design programs on this PC. I might start flash animating some of my cartoons since I have a computer that can handle whatever I throw at it now.
