Hardware Sale!

Last week my husband’s company held a hardware lottery and we bought an old Dell Precision 620 for $75. They wanted to get rid of some old stuff and we were lucky enough to win our pick of what they had. It has a Dual Xeon 1Ghz process and is maxed out at 512 MB of RAM. It’s a far cry better than the desktop we have now. This weekend I’m going to put a new hard-drive in it and we’re ready to go!

In the fall I want to build my mom a new computer. It has to be high-performing, reliable, and with a lot of storage. I have a new hard drive for it and am going to start shopping for other parts later in the summer.
