queenofshopping Posted December 11, 2005 Author Posted December 11, 2005 so-so...for basic use, like work & school stuff (not hardcore gaming or multimedia) 512mb ram is ideal, & an 80gb hard drive, so i'd say no, but if you hate rebates this would be good

justbarbour Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 You could buy a stick of 256 mb ram from crucial.com for less than $50. If you wanted to spend a little more money and buy a stick of 512 mb, it would only cost between $60 and $70. This would allow you to have 768 mb total, which is more than enough to do most basic computer tasks. And the installation is a breeze (it literally clicks in). Upgrading the hard drive is a bit trickier. But I don't think most folks absolutely need something larger than the 80 gb.
queenofshopping Posted December 11, 2005 Author Posted December 11, 2005 yeah you can get upgrades, or get what just is talking about, both are pretty easy & much less expensive than they once were...this is def a good price considering the lack of rebates!
