Well, I guess it is mostly behaving well.
Of course if I indulge my habit of having Many browser windows open, it gets balky; but when I close them it's okay.
The odd thing with various results when I go back to the machine after ans absence continues. I.e. sometimes it wakes up with a touch on the space bar or pretty much anything else; sometimes a quick click on the power button; sometimes it takes long enough to show a sign I figure it is all locked up.
Sometimes I seem to have to force it to turn off, then reboot.
Don't know what it means; I can live with it but of course I worry something catastrophic is in the works.
So aside from that, guess it is working well.
I am always soliciting opinions about what would be a really good, long-lasting computer.
My wife and I use Dells serially. Buy them cheap (new) from eBay resellers. They last a couple of years or five. If you have a favorite, always interested.
Thank you for help this time around.

It gives me the opinion your having an issue with the computers processor? and possibly other areas of hardware for fast functioning, maybe needs some driver updates?
I've seen many articles on the net where people complain about trying to wake a computer that has been in sleep mode.
I'm not a hardware person at all or can I get my head around how the internals of a computer work...sigh
What I'm also picking up on is that this might have been a used/refurbished computer when you bought it?
Not that there's anything wrong with that but you get what you buy, never knowing exactly how well maintained or updated, or if a wipe and reinstall was done correct. But if you used the computer for some time and it worked very well from the get go then I think it was in good shape when you bought it.
A good thing about buying 'new' computers is you get the option to buy extended warranties and options that are not offered on buying as is.
As for brands best to buy, you'll have to do you research on that.
You can start by Googling best performing computers to see which would fit your needs.
On items not working well while on Facebook, I'd have to refer you over to the hardware forum and see if anyone can pick up on what could be happening there.
