This nice older lady gave my mom a laptop because she doesn't use it anymore. So she asked me to come and take a look at it. What I saw astounded me!
Sitting on her table was a circa 2004(?) Sony Vaio PCG-K23. It has a 100Gb drive and 1Gb of RAM, running XP. Opened up Microsoft office, and it ran like a 383 with a blower strapped to it.
The odd thing is, it is mint. Not a scratch, dent, smudge, dust particle, worn key or any wear whatsoever! It looks like it just transported itself from 2005! Kinda erie actually. Who knows, maybe this lady bought it, tried it, and was too intimidated by it to use it?
Here's the kicker though… I hate to see perfectly good stuff go to waste, if someone can use it. What do I do with this thing? Obviously XP is no good for surfing nowadays...
