It is not worth $200. You can get some new ones for that price.

Just because it is two years old doesnt mean down the line you cant upgrade the pc! The processer will be the only thing that will be out dated on the pc. But you can buy more memory for it to speed the pc up a larger harddrive for extra space upgrades of windows xp! So the $200 dont sound bad when you really aint got that much money right know!

hi You dont say what your device specs are yet @ 2 years old its hadrly an vintage and identity speculate that you'll probable get an excellent progression in velocity by performing some minor improvements (ram &/or cpu). once you've decrease than 2 gig of ram then this can be worth gazing. also something decrease than a a million.5ghz cpu will be somewhat in the back of the 8 ball. The earnings with that's that you're able to keep all you cutting-edge settings/courses/archives. you also ought to nicely be stunned what impact an basic reformat/reinstall ought to have on your machines performance. (abode windows is notorious or getting slower with age on any unmarried set up).you would ought to lower back up each and every thing yet you would favor to attempt this to move to a sparkling workstation besides. + you would favor to reformat before promoting your device so as that there isn't any possibility of persons having access on your inner most suggestion from the hd. So this is a sensible initiating aspect before you shell out for wither an improve or a sparkling workstation. Thats my 5c worth. even with you settle on i wish all of it is going nicely for you.

I wouldn't risk it. If you can somehow get a hold of another $200 you can get a new system. You spend $200 on the used system it could break tomorrow.

Please post more description about the PC so you can get opinions. Examples: Is it a Dell? What's its memory? Does it have USB ports? Are you likely to burn CD's? Does it have one? Can it take DSL? OR Wireless? And so forth.

Depends on the specs.
I'd say it's probably a pretty fair deal.
