[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1172420, member: 56379"] Thanks for the info...sounds pretty much what I was expecting. If you keep your needs modest: - light internet surfing - no You Tube videos - e-mail - using MS Office 2008 (an older version would probably be better/faster) - mp3's will be ok - video editing...I really doubt it. If you're using really old software (maybe)...but don't even think of running any modern video editing software. Like I said...$175 is way too much for this. I bought one like it a while ago for $40 bucks. I would say it's worth no more than $75. To add another example. I bought a Powerbook G4, 867mhz, built-in airport & bluetooth, 640 gig ram, 20 gig hard drive (this is a 2003 computer) for $80. Good luck, - Nick [/QUOTE]
