I've heard all the updates can really slow down your computer. I guess I could call the suport number as I have hours of free support when I purchased them and I think we have used like 5 minutes. All of my business is done on web based applications so I probably purchased way more computer then I needed. My goal this year was to learn more about computers and so far I have learned how to use the multi function printer, scanner, etc... so we can send stuff out in different ways. Next is to learn how to scane in paper work and save it instead of files for ever customer.

what updates are we talking about? windows updates? a program that tries to update software to all of your peripherals and programs or what?

updates don't slow down your computer by default, I'm not really sure what's meant by that

what browser do you use since most of your stuff is on web apps? so much of that was done for IE6
