My work sells old computers for $25.00 and I got one finally. Came with everything but it's slow as all hell. I'm trying to figure out what would be the best route here to get it to do what I want it to do. My main things for it is.
1) Burn DVD's
2) Burn Music
3) Internet
I'm not going to play games or anything graphic related. I don't know if it's just cheaper to buy a whole new computer though. I got on New Egg and was pricing out parts. I just really want to know if I can get away with this setup. I was going to try and leave the PIII in there and just get a 40 gb hard drive, dvd burner, and some memory but I might upgrade the PIII since it's like 330 mhz to a 700 + mhz. Can I still get away with a slow processor if I want to burn DVD's? Any help on what I should do would be appreciated.
Thanks.
