what? Punctuation and seperating thoughts... That's a reader's best friend.

So are you trying to resell this computer..? That's hardly enough ram to even get the thing to turn on.

no right i want ot put a computer in my bedroom up to date yet right i have a choice i can buy a Â£99 computer witch is 128 ram 10 gig and with and 17 inch monitor or get an old computer from my nan witch i don't know anything about

FghtinIrshNvrDi · 02-03-2006, 02:18 PM

well, I sure as heck wouldn't buy a computer with 128mb of ram and a 10 gig hard drive for 99... whatever that symbol is. The free one may be a gamble, but the odds are in your favor with your... nan..?

Take both PC's, sell em on ebay.

yo, hey I don't know how much computers sell for regularly in your area of the globe but I just built a comp with
256megs
amd duron 1.8 ghz
40gb hd
dvd-rom
nVidia geforce fx5500( my favorite video card! )
and floppy with 15'' monitor and wireless key board and mouse for $258 exact in america

a 17" monitor wouldn't be bad for the combined price

Ethereal_Dragon · 02-03-2006, 05:09 PM

I woundn't go with the 99$ one... that 10 Gig drive is probably near the end of its life, and who knows what condition that 17" monitor is in... and 128Mb ram? that MIGHT be enough to boot windows... and use the calculator, or play solitare.
