 Well, there is that factor. Though it takes a lot to get me to
 upgrade. The one I am using now is the first computer I paid
 full price for since... maybe the first ever. Got my first
 pentium as a store demo on a closeout. Got my daughter's the
 same way. Just had another one given to me, older, slower... if
 1 ghz is slow, bad hard drive. Big deal.
