[plug] What computer should I buy?

[Onno Benschop]

It's interesting to me to see how this is evolving as I receive feedback
and continue to write.

As I write more detail, currently explaining MHz, GHz, Terabyte and the
like, the less it relates to the BBQ audience.

Structurally it's all over the place, the break point still seems to be
after the five questions, but there is place for further reading.

I'm continuing to write for the moment, capturing concepts and explaining
them, but I don't think they'll end up belonging in the BBQ discussion.

Some comments point out that this will need some serious editing to make it
brief again.
