She has an old Toshiba core 2 duo that started with vista, which I upgraded to xp last year. Tonight I bought a windows 8 upgrade for $39 and put my old 60gb ssd in and I'm REALLY impressed with the speed, even in ide mode.
The laptop boots faster than my pc and feels almost as quick. It was fantastic how 8 did all the driver installs with no bloat. I'll buy a new battery and hopefully get another year out of it.
Just happy to have a technology win for once!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
