Aspire 7720G major upgrade

[triturbo]

A little off-topic... What do you guys think, if I would want to sell this upgraded 7720G, how much could I get for it? I'm not saying that I'm selling it, it's just a thought

The answer is - no one could appreciate the feelings involved, the sentimental value, the countless hours of tweaking and so on. They just glance at the (outdated) specs, compare them with something new, and tell you $400-500 at best. That's it.

If I could get 450 for mine it would be gone now. But I'm keeping it and upgrading it more. Just loaded 7 on it...... much better.

I couldn't agree with you more on this. I think I could never sell this machine because I'm too attached to it, too much time was spent on tweaking, testing, learning about it. And of course, this entire thread is a part of that experience also.

At this point I don't see a need for buying new machines. With the addition of more ram, win 7, and an ssd, there is not a dramatic speed increase in newer systems as there was say 4 or 5 years ago.

I totally agree, with my upgraded ssd and ram and windows 7, my computer feels as fast as or even faster than my brother new hp beats i5 laptop, there is no massive advancement in technology to make my laptop seem old and rubbish compared to new laptops, plus I have 17" screen and two hdd bays, I feel secure for a few more years till new major technology happens haha, just need a new graphics card like the 9500m gt and i will be happy, plus i would never play games from computers, just on the xbox 360 so the computer manages everything i need

I would only buy a new laptop because this one has issues with DPC latency's which aren't too good for DJ-ing or music production, but this machine is still great, especially with these cool upgrades
