Thinking About a New Dell for My Birthday

You should invest in a Laptop cooling pad.
this cost as much as a cutting board but cools the bottom of the laptop to keep from overheating

Topmate C 302 laptop cooling pads are fairly cheap and I have used them for years. eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/256231320021?chn=ps&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A1Lsv3mV9oTcSEN9MlreDq8A49&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-213727-13078-0&mkcid=2&itemid=256231320021&targetid=4581046492584080&device=c&mktype=&googleloc=&poi=&campaignid=603247544&mkgroupid=1239150598504493&rlsatarget=pla-4581046492584080&abcId=9316119&merchantid=51291&msclkid=5b3eaf58884919c3c532c9a534d4c752

Well, I finally got Quicken 2017 installed and working on the new Dell. I copied all Quicken folders (Intuit) from my old Windows 10 Dell to the new Dell and it works. Still working a couple bugs out; the columns change at times so I reset them, but overall it works fine, My problem is the fonts for some of the frames is too small and I can't find how to enlarge them. The transactions fonts are easy to change, but some of then column labels and instructions stay small. Using a magnifier may work it out. Goi ng blind maybe.

I don't think it's your eyes. I think it's a problem with Quicken. If they have a forum maybe you can find where someone posted a setting you can change. I am glad you have it working again.

I do look on their community forum but see very little info on my question. I think I can find the solution whenever I look. It's user entry stuff and little to do with programming. Changing font sizes with my 1920x1200 screen is not easy. Some of the changes work but the context menus to the programs is not easy to change, it is most likely Windows I have to deal with. It seems like as time goes on MS make simple things complicated beyond reason. I wish I could speak and read Woke talk then I could understand MS programmers.

I'll pass. I'm too old, set in my ways. I won't even listen to the new music that's being released. I'll stick with the Classic Rock I grew up with. I'm sure the generations before us felt the same way.
