Hi everyone-
Newbie here but everyone has to start right?
I just purchased a refirb IBM T43 and it has a 40G HD. Not much to work with I know.
My question is how much of that memory does or should WinXPpro actually take? Almost the entire HD has been filled with the basic OS, the systems periferials and it left me with little space to put programs I wanted.
I put WoW (World of Warcraft for those who hate acrynoms) on the system and Norton 360 and I have almost no room for personal pics, simple programs and definitely not MS Office (which I really kinda need).
My second question is- Is it possible to upgrade the 40G to an 80 or *gasp* dare I say a 120? I know many laptop hardwares are board mounted and what you got is what you get.
Thanks for any help
