Hi,
Yes, that is my final offer. 50,000 for what you are getting is a good price. You could get another case for it, sure, but I wouldn't just for asethetics.
My wife has the camera and isn't home. I'll upload, hopefully, today.  |

A 797MHZ processor isn't very fast, and 320mb ram isn't very much. You'll be able to do basic stuff, like surf the net, type in Word, listen to music. However, you probably won't be able to do more than one or two things at once.
If you want to add something to this computer after you buy it to increase its performance, but keep the cost down, just buy 1gb of ram, assuming the motherboard supports it. That would cost maybe $20 in the States, probably less (idk about here though it can't be much), and would really speed up the computer. Generally, ram is how much a computer can handle, and processor speed is how fast it can do those things, though without getting too deep into it the ram does speed up the computer. Upgrading the ram is usually a very simple process.
Basically, don't expect much for this rig, it's exactly worth W50,000, and you're not going to get a penny more of worth out of it. It'll do what you need, but not much more, and it won't do it blazingly fast, but if you know that going in, you'll likely be pleased with it. If you're adventurous, you could consider installing Linux instead of Windows and make it even faster. If you're interested in that, feel free to PM me, I can help you with it. |
