it'd be enough for a whole new PC. I'm hoping since I'm gonna be upgrading through him that he's not gonna charge me another thousand dollars just to install the pieces. I'd do it myself but I don't want to void my warranty with him which is something like 5 years or something.

yeah i just got into an argument with my friend the other day. were gonna be doing a job for our old boss and he is going to give my buddy his old laptop (366mhz p2, 192mb ram, 6gb hdd) and he thinks a laptop is like a desktop and you can just open it up and upgrade the whole mobo and crap, like put new stuff on it. its funny because i did some research on it, and it uses a slot 1 processor. lol. a cartridge cpu in a laptop
