Learned a lesson today, went cleaning my HDD, went from 5,2GB free to 61GB!!

So boys and girls, no matter your specs, every PC can become slow, and fast again

I've cleaned 20gb off my laptop's hard disk several times now, and it does run a lot better. But im reinstalling windows on it over the weekend, because even with 15gb free i'm starting to feel the blunt side of its 1.5ghz Celeron M with half a gig of RAM. Even booting up can take anywhere up to 20 minutes now...

Something tells me that its time for a new processor. Celeron M 530s are pretty cheap now. As are new laptops

As are new laptops

Precisely. Which is why I aim to suck just a bit more life out of this laptop, so that when i go to college I have an excuse to buy an uber-cool UMPC or tablet

I got tired of my hard drives filling up so I bought a 300gig hard drive, haven't filled it up yet

Now thats a solution that a guy would come up with...just make it bigger!
