We don't have a desktop. We all have laptops, and when I went to buy mine, I wanted one with a cd drive and they told me that you can't buy them like that here anymore. They'd have to install one, which would then cost extra. And my husband has been trying to cinvince me to get rid of all our CDs because they are obsolete and you can install them on the computer, which is true, but then if your computer crashes, or you get a new one, you have to transfer all those files again, or they are lost, etc. I want my hard copy just in case. He thinks they just take up space.
