Computer
I recently built a new PC for home. I have decided to sell my old PC to my friend, for a fairly cheap price. The old machine is still quite comperable for todays use. A 2.4 MHz P4 with a GB of ram and an ATI Radeon 9800 video card. It was top of the line when I built is a little over two years ago. Anyway, over the last couple of years I had ripped all of my CD's onto the hard drive to import onto my IPod. I have about 300 CD's so as you might now, this procedue cost me a lot of man hours. I wanted to save all of this work so I installed the drive into my new machine to pull my songs off. For the countless hours that it took me to get my albums onto the PC the first time, it took less then fifteen minutes to transfer the files from my 80 GB drive to my new 160 GB drive. Now I have to put the drive back in the old machine and format it so my friend can load his own OS. He will now be able to play games that were released in the year 2000 to today. He is currently running a 400 MHz Pentium 2. I took my DVD Burner and Drive out of the machine to put into my new box. I told him that all he had to buy would be a CD burner or DVD drive. He said that he would just put his current DVD and CDR into it. I told him to spend the extra fifty dollars and get something that wasn't made in the 90's. He agreed.
