I just got a new computer for $20, yes that's right, $20 dollars, I went to my local store to get a hardware upgrade for my older computer and it wouldnt fit in my case. Now get this: He got a computer from the back of the store and gave it to me for the $20. So now I've given it a new CD ROM drive, and a hard drive and it runs WinXP flawlessly. This is the computer that struggled to run Win2000 before.

:O That's good news; $20 is like only £10, that my friend is good going

Don't suppose we can get specifications of this new computer (of course am not expecting a super computer but let's see...)?

Good one tails =P hahahaha

Yep, the computer's specifications are as follows:

• Hard Drive: 10GB (Taken from the old computer)
• CD-ROM Drive: 40x Compaq CD-ROM
• CD-RW Drive: 24x10x40x Lite-On CDRW
• RAM: 512MB (Unsure if DDR1 or DDR2)
• CPU: AMD Athlon 1800+ 1.54GHz

It runs great for the purposes I need it for, it even runs the 2007 Microsft Office system, so it's more than I ever could have hoped for $20.

Not bad You certainly profited from this then--well done.

I know, I'm glad that the store-owner was that kind.

Just wish I can run sli for $20 too.

thetarget, could you tell me what "sli" is?
