Roy,
BTW - This is the link for the ACER laptop I am thinking of using as a replacement laptop.
https://www.amazon.com/Acer-15-6-inc...Aspire+laptops
For my sound needs, I am currently using an Echo Indio sound card which I assume will not be supported with my new purchase. My guess is that I will be using my headphone port to supply audio source instead. Any and all recommendations in this area greatly appreciated.
Best,
Gwen
