I can get one for free at work. It's got 110mghz processor and about 80mb of memory. I use reason a lot and they say the minimum processor speed is 128mghz. I know I can put more memory in but how bout' updating the processor. Does anyone out there use a computer this slow for anything audio? Anyone have price estimates on getting this thing up to snuff. Is it worth it?

I uused that machine in my Recording classes years back, running protools. Again I wouldn't use an upgrade card for that michine, but If its free take it anyway, you can use older audio programs. and better yet, use it for midi sequencing, especialy if you use protools, you can do all sequencing on the old machine and record the audio into protools.
