Quick Laptop/PC Upgrades Before you jump into the market thinking you need a new laptop. You might want to first consider whether you just need to make some minor upgrades. Here are some suggestions before you start trying upgrade:
If you want to upgrade your laptop, there's really only two things you can focus on.
Ram is very important on your computer when you want to run a heavy amount of programs, or if your running Windows Vista. If you have 1GB of memory, I suggest upgrading to 2GB or 4GB if your laptop supports it. You will see some stark improvements. Size does matter when it comes to a hard drive. The smaller the hard drive, the less space you have to work with. If your laptop has an 80GB hard drive, look into upgrading to a 250GB hard drive. You'll be glad you got the extra size. How to upgrade Your laptop should have come with a manual in how to upgrade your ram or hard drive. I think Dell is probably the best at this. They always include a manual with their products so you can upgrade components. If you can't find the manual, you can always do a search for it online. You should be able to find an online copy.
