[quote=Anonymous]The issue that you are going to run into is that software is not coded efficiently. So while your 20+ year old hardware is probably fine with a little tune up, it simply has no chance to run today's software.

I know that it seems like a waste, but you will be well served buying another computer, either Mac or PC.

It sounds like you want easy. All of the modern stuff is easy to set up and you will not need any assistance. Just follow the wizards when starting up for the first time.

Spend a weekend ensuring that you are backing up all of the files you need. Store to both a hard drive and the cloud. Then put all of the old stuff in a milk crate and let your husband (or you if you want to feel great about it) drill a few holes through all of the storage components when he gets time down the road and then give it to e recycling.

Your system is 20+ years old. You do not need to replace it with a several thousand dollar state of the art system. Get a last years model new for dirt cheap and you will be blown away by the improvements.

Oh and your kid will think you are a hero again, for the weekend, at least.

I agree all of the services mentioned again are great, but they are just going to spend too much time trying to recreate a bad computing experience from the last century all the while recommending that you update. Just do it.[/quote]
