Computer has been going strong for seven years now

Pros: long lasting
Cons:
can't upgrade anymoreI bought this computer in 2000. It had 32mb ram, 566mhz celeron, and 7gb hard drive. It has since been upgraded to 512mb ram, 1.1ghz celeron, and 40gb hdd with a tv tuner card added as well as an ethernet adapter and a 256mb graphics PCI card. I'm pretty confident this is the max, but the computer has done excellent over the years.
the above post was talking about your same emachine ^
seems like a useful puter, maybe save for awhile and make an upgrade OR
there's always the rummaging around schools, old businesses , junk yards <<
like I do
... and look for old puters, possibly could find a compatible mobo or at least some useful sticks of ram?
