What would you recommend? New computer or rebuild?
I have a Inspiron 8000 with a 700 meg chip. 256 ram and a hard drive is garbage. DVD, CD burner.
I was looking around and it looks like a 60 or 80 gig hard drive would run well under $200. And I could upgrade the ram to 1G for $200. For $400 I would have my laptop running.
I paid $2500 years ago for this. Hate to spend another 2G's. Is it worth doing this to a computer with a 700 chip?
