+Here you will find information on the hardware and software that I regularly enjoy, and recommend.  My software usage frequently fluctuates, but the software and services listed below have stayed with me over the years.
+
+## Computers
+
+**Buckwheat**
+
+My main desktop computer; the first custom computer I have ever built for myself.  13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700K CPU and 64Gb DDR4 RAM on a Gigabyte Z790 AORUS ELITE ATX Motherboard
+
+**Fireweed**
+
+A monstrous 2011 MacBook Pro with the main drive swapped to an SSD, the optical drive swapped for an internal drive, and RAM maxxed to 16Gb.  I believe it is the last MacBook that allows modification
+
+**Clover**
+
+A Lenovo all-in-one that I saved from the dump, gives me something to watch movies and shows in my bedroom
+
+**Basswood**
+
+A 2013 MacBook Pro that I keep for some MacOS software, listed below
+
+**Bluegum**
+
+A 2017 iPad Pro 10in
+
+**Alfalfa**
+
+An iPhone 11 Max Pro that I get from work.  The phone wasn't being used in a drawer, and I needed an upgrade at the time.
+
