Re: OT: computers
Since a personal upgrade is out of the question.
Perhaps you should narrow your choices down to the dell route or perhaps a local mom and pop who has a good reputation.
Trade in your old puppy for some money off on the new one...
Or as a third option
keep the old guy around and play with it... and learn how to build and destroy computers...
But I would save the 20 gig drive.... it will come in use ....
Just remember that you do not need the high end CPU, just get a good motherboard.
THe only things you could salvage would be the harddrive, floopy, cdr , and perhaps the sound card.....
Good luck... keep to your budget.
512 megs ram
1800
nvida 2 chip set with onboard nic , ( perhaps onboard sound card )
dvd / cd / cdr combo oem ( lite on or some thing like that )
60 gig hard drive
video card ( Geforce middle of the pack one ) oem
soundbLaster oem
your set....
Will not rob the bank and next year you can upgrade the cpu or memory when things slow down abit... which i doubt they will...
