Sid,

Your P75 is only two years old. In three years you will replace it because:

1. It will break...be out warranty..and it won't pay to fix it.

2. New software will eat up your 2GB hard drive. You'll need a bigger drive. Try finding laptop parts, four years after EOL.

3. You will want to upgrade because you want the newer features offered like a bigger screen, and you realize your PC is important to your life.

4. NT 6.0 will be optimized for Pentium II and beyond. It will crawl on your P75.

The bottom line is you will replace the unit.

You will be a CPQ, or Dell or Toshiba customer 2, maybe three years from now. Unless you stop using a PC altogether.
