This unit will serve, as is, a couple more years. Then it will become a 2nd, spare machine. At that time, XP will have zero support, and Windows 8 will probably be on the shelves. The top tech of today will be more than half the price it is now...
This PC has served me really well. Invested almost nothing into it, is still running real fine - almost 8 years later & doing streaming video, playing DVD's, etc...
May the next machine do as well...
