My uncle bought this computer for around $2000 in 1998, 8.5 years ago. I just bought a top of the line computer, and I saw a huge difference. This computer has a 1.6 Ghz Pentium 4 Processor, 512 MB RAM DDR, 80 GB Hard Drive, 4 USB ports, one 1394 port (firewire port), 17" CRT monitor (analog connector port, has no digital port), DVD drive and CD-RW drive, low-end Video and Sound Cards (nice speakers, though), lots of Sony software for Movies, Music, and Pictures, Microsoft XP Home, and Microsoft Office 2003 Standard Edition (only software that I added after I restored the computer). Please give me an estimate of how much this computer is worth from your experience without any bad comment. Thanks.

My uncle came yesterday, and he just updated the computer from the Sony website, 8.5 years in the making. It is actually a pretty fast computer, just not able to handle today's advanced games like Doom and Halo 2 (at least I don't think-it can handle games like Age of Mythology, World of Warcraft, etc).

About 10% of what you paid for it MAXIMUM
The software is worth more than the system but if your going to get another computer youll want to keep them it will save you some $ when you buy another computer (you can get one with no os)
the computer is ancient by computer standards If I were you Id sell the box for $150 sell the monitor for $100 XP for $75 (if its OEM sell it with the box and add $50)
