Not perfect but beats that old 350Mhz Pentium ! !.[/quote]
Thats great. I'm not to keen on the whole windows thing. But the rest of the computer is decent. Slightly lacking in ram but yea. Beats the pants off the other computer you had.
Don't you just love what educational institutions throw out.
So far from my Uni I have recovered:
16 optical Mice (given about 8 of them away and keeping the rest incase i need them)
1 1 Ghz Celeron with 512mb RAM and a 40 gb hd (I sold this for $120)
1 40gb Hd by its self
4 dvd combo drives.
1.2 GHz celeron with 640mb RAM
667 MHz Pentium III no ram or HD included. (sold for $40 
)
One 450 MHz Pentium III processor and motherboard.
4 17inch CRT screens (given two of them away)
10 Microsoft Keyboard black. New.
Tonnes of network cables. Most of them 2 metres and below but some go all the way up to 7.5 metres.
Tonnes of spare powercables.[/quote]
About the Memory, i went to the Flea Market down the street an hour ago and upgraded the
computer to 768MB of ram for $10.
