| Is it worth it to upgrade this? My mom works at a learning center and said that someone brought a computer in three months ago. Since the lady hasn't come back yet they were going to throw it out so she said I could have it to mess with.
The stickers on the front of it, beneath the floppy drive, say: 700mhz processor, 64mBs of ram, 20gB hard drive, and it has ME.
What are some options that I could do with this? |

| Re: Is it worth it to upgrade this? Upgrade options would be extreamly limited as that technology is very outdated. You might be able to put some more ram in maybe and also a bigger hard drive.
I wouldn't expect you could do too much with it unless you replace almost everything. But hey, it was for free |

Most Computer Nuts pursue having high-end stuff, I'm an extraordinary hardcore one because I pursue low-end |
