Fix or Replace Your Old Computer
For the vast majority, the choice to supplant a PC comes down to cost.

The expense to bring your framework up to current guidelines is probably going to far surpass the expense to supplant it.
You won't have the option to reinstall your current working framework in the event that you have lost the Windows programming permit key. Buying another OS will add about $100-150 to your fix cost, implying that a hard drive substitution or even a reformat of your drive could be cost restrictive.
