    What CPU has it got ?

    Probably something like an early AMD, or Cyrix chip !

    now for the bad bits lmao

    ram: 64mb

    gonna use the bits to hopefully fix another laptop i have lying around
    For three quid you can't really go wrong.
    It's got more functions than my old laptop, mines like one of the oldest Toshiba ones that I had since I was 8, it's so ancient, chunky and SLOW!

    What even for £99? LOL i wouldn't quite say it was appauling.

    If you can show me a brand spanker with a better setup for £99 i'd be interested to see it.....

    I have never filled it up or had running problems with it, use it for work and home etc?

    That's like saying you cant get a better brand new car than a hyundai for £5000. True but why would you want to? That's a crap spec.

    After xp is installed and the hdd formatted you must have about 3gb of storage? Xp needs a good 5-10gb to run nicely!
