Ok, I ran into a guy who lives by me one saturday when i was doing my garage sale runs. I took a peak in his garage and he had about 100 computers!!! I asked him what he was doin with so many computers and he said he owned a place in brooklyn that repairs and sells them.

now, heres the thing:

he want to sell me a refurbished computer for $250. he said its a pentium 3 and it had 400 megahurtz.

I found out from a friend that the P3 only comes with 450 or higher, so naturally, the guy made a mistake. he said he doesnt know much about computers but his technicans are the experts.

what i want to know is that is 250 a good price for a refurbished pentuium 3?

how many rams should it have? and how many megahurtz should it have?

thaNKS!!!!!!

NO!!! Win ME was the worst operating system they ever made. Just go to Dell and check their site and get a brand new computer. Especially if you're not into heavy gameplay or editing you could get a new one for $500.

Don't get anything less than a P4 with about 2.6-2.8 mhz. 512RAM. And the harddrive it all depends on how much you store, but 80GB should be find for you. All the other stuff IE: cd-rom, cd-rewriterable, DVD player etc. is up to you.
