A guide to the big computer question: fix it - or buy new?

(Applies to windows systems xp or prior.)

1. Is the computer running Windows XP? (Yes-go on) (No-buy new)

2. Was the orginal operating system 98SE or XP? (Yes-go on) (No-buy new)

3. Does the unit require hardware repairs possibly totaling over $250? (Yes-buy new) (No-go on)

4. Can you play music and search the internet at the same time without having the music skip? (Yes- go on) (No- buy new)

5. Do you like the one you have and is it working perfectly? (No- buy new) (Yes- why are you reading this??)

Your question #2 isn’t a yes/no question.

What if you have a Mac?
