purchasing a new computer
I have a 5 year old computer that continues to work okay but have the opportunity to purchase a new one. Is this a good idea? I have been given a lot of software that I am not able to use on my computer as the OS is so old.
My current computer is a HP Pavilion with Windows 98 SE, a 500 mh Celeron processor, a 10.2 gb hard drive, with 319 mb RAM.
New computer would be a Compaq with Windows XP, a 1.8 gh Semperon processor, a 160 gh hard drive, with 512 mb RAM.
This sounds like a good deal as I will be able to purchase computer-only for 199.99. I have put off purchasing a new cpu as I am rather restrained as to money.
Any advise will be appreciated!!
