I had to laugh about Norton 😆, (even though it is not funny). Most anti virus's are WORSE than a virus. I found out in the 1990's not to use Norton.
Your hardware sounds like just what I need, but it has gotten very hard to get a lot of good hardware lately, at any price. All I can say, is back up everything, in multiple places. I know it is a pain in the ass, but so is trying to redo everything because you lost your game files. That would be tragic.
I will also be on vacation at the same time as you so that is perfect for me. I can hardly wait for Amy and Lisa's "big adventure". I think I have been waiting since 2023 for that 😂. My feeling is, Amy almost deserves her own game. As long as you throw in Jackie, it is bound to be fun 😉.
