    Oh lord that's crap...still, it's something for nothing. Don't expect to run anything made after 2000 on it.

    Yes, its worth it if its free. It'd be worth about 10-20 euro at best. It'd be fine for MS word, internet and that sort of stuff. I ran XP on a Celeron 400mhz with 128mb and it was very usable....for the above mentioned tasks.

    Not all at the same time, of course :rolleyes: - also OP if you use Firefox, from what I've heard and from personal experience it's better to use IE on something like this. Firefox, though massively improved since its RAM-eating days, still tends to be a little more resource-hungry.
