Without sounding like a complete PC illiterate, . . I am thinking, concerning the search methods, . .

If one could click in his or her PC type, brand, system, or some other numerical code, then search
as if he or she were googleing, would be my idea of a stream line way to find out if any other similar to your request information's are in the forum archives.

Considering the vast number of individual models available, to say nothing of custom built computers, this would be very difficult to implement with any degree of completeness. Plus, most of the posts on Bleeping COmputer don't explicitly state what the make and model of the system are as that info is usually only really needed in hardware-related problems.

Again, . . Granted !

And I really did not consider the vast amount of PC types and information that would be needed, . . .

However, as long as it's possible, . . I can dream about it.

That is a least a minor satisfaction.

So...a guy is driving around the back woods of Montana and he sees a
sign in front of a broken down shanty-style house: 'Talking Dog For Sale '
He rings the bell and the owner appears and tells him the dog is in the backyard.

The guy goes into the backyard and sees a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there. 'You talk?' he asks.
'Yep,' the Lab replies.
After the guy recovers from the shock of hearing a dog talk, he says
'So, what's your story?'

The Lab looks up and says, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when
I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the CIA. In
no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.'

'I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years. But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security, wandering near suspicious characters and listening in.
I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals.'
'I got married, had a mess of puppies, and now I'm just retired.' The guy is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog.

'Ten dollars,' the guy says.
'Ten dollars? This dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'
'Because he's a liar. He never did any of that crap

Then, . . How about a search within a search !

For Example If you are searching titles on the, "More Search Options" or custom search,

and you choose search titles, you may not word it right resulting in "no items found"

but if you search mail box, then search full, instead of rewording and guessing, which doesn't

work for me. But the search within a search for key words, would !
