This old laptop is a P2-300mhz 12 gig laptop with a worn out battery. It has no ethernet port either. I just loaded Windows 2000 on it but I need a recovery disk for the assorted drivers.
Am I wasting my time working on this old laptop? Would you suggest that the owner(I am helping out as a friend)retire this antique and buy a used one on Craigslist? This machine has no ethernet port and I feel that I am wasting my time. The owner claims that he is going to buy a new battery for it and continue using it. But I have my doubts but he feels that he paid more than 2k for it and he wants to get his $$ out of it.
