Hi my dad just bought a new laptop for his work and he gave me his old one.

It doesn't really ever run too slow, i just need to upgrade the ram. But I'm not good at processors...so yeah.

Thanks

Looks okay.

Yeah, it's fine.
Just get about 1GB of RAM, and that's all you'll need.
I mean, if you're going to be gaming, then no. However, if you're just trying to surf the internet, download videos, listen to music, code programs (If you're a programmer), then the computer should work perfectly fine. (After the 1GB addition.)

You can play games like Halo on a P4 (Pentium 4) and Half-life 2 (I've tried). But anything else, no.

Just don't try playing any games that came out later than like 2004.

It's better than mine and I can play Battlefeild 2 just fine.. On the lowest settings that is (smoother gameplay), but that's not really my processor's fault.

Yeah i do not play games, i use this laptop for programming, or if i go to a friends for the night i can bring it with me. My Desktop, however, is good for games and all that stuff. Thanks
