ShawnHeather88 · 03-13-2008, 09:45 PM

I dont wanna spend over $700 us. I just bought a Sony Vaio Laptop vgn-nr120e/s 160Gig HD, 1Gig Ram, Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T2310 @1.46GHz 1.47 GHz, 32 bit operating system windows vista home premium, Dvd Burner/Reader. I can either sell this on ebay (prob wont get what I want for it) or trade it for my dads desktop comp.

Medion-Intel(R) Pentium(R) Precessor 540 With HT Tech, 1Mb L2 Cache, 800 MHz Front Side BUS, Windows Xp Home Sp2, 512 Mb DDR Ram(will be adding more if i got), 200 Gig 7200 Seagate Sata HD, DL Dvd Burner, 128Mb Nvidia Geforce Fx 5300 Graph W/DVI. Alos has speakers sub

what do you want a new computer for? you have a new laptop!

what is it for? playing games?

your dad's "old" computer would be dire playing games compared to your laptop.

Hate how the laptop dies fast. Would it be cheaper to upgrade the laptop or desktop or build my own comp? Eventualy would like a blu-ray reader/Burner to hook up to my hdtv to watch blu-rays. Used for sims not many other games maybe a couple but we use our xbox for that. If I kept the laptop how would I hook the laptop up to the tv?

what type of tv is it?

if its plasma or lcd then it should have a dvi or vga port. a standard monitor cable would do that easily.

Or you could use S-Video or RCA from your monitor. RCA to a adapter, get it to coxial. Same with S-Video. Take in mind, S-Video is a last resort. The picture is HORRIBLE!
