    I saw a Philips PC for sale 3 years old,running XP for 200 euro. Would anyone know if that is a good price?

    Also as the monitor is crt could i hook it up to my old laptop screen and use that as monitor? The old laptop has XP on it so how would i change from using the screen from the old laptop to the philips?

    SEE adverts.ie for sale ,computer hardware, A PC pentium 4 cpu 1.5ghz 80gig hd,1gig 1000 meg ram is about 130euro.You cant take the screen off a laptop and use it 4 a pc.pc price depends cpu speed ghz,amount of ram,size of hardrive.IF you have a standard vga standalone lcd pc monitor ,then you just plug vga monitor cable into pc vga out15pin socket,if cable is vga and socket is dvi,get dvi/vga adaptor 3euro.
    WHAT IS pc cpu/processor,post it here whats the asking price.if you put laptop on adverts ie sell it ,buy an lcd monitor.CPU shoud be at least 1.5ghz speed ,otherwise forget it.is the screen part of the laptop, ie hinged on it,like a lid.
