My feeling is this. XP with the latest service packs for your Toshiba. The Toshiba most likely will not run Vista or Windows 7 because of a graphics driver issue, i.e., lack thereof. Since you have two gigs of RAM and a 250 hard drive, XP will be okay with it. Since you can't go over 512 on the Dell, which I find really hard to believe, then sticking with Win2K would probably work. Since it's your internet computer, and you aren't doing anything intensive on it...browsing, e-mail, word processing, etc., you *could* install XP with the latest SP and probably be okay. I'd use Avast and Zone Alarm for protection. I just bought an HP laptop for <$500 at WalMart. It had Vista Home Premium 32 bit on it, but now has Windows 7 32 bit on it. It does run a 64 bit CPU, and I'm probably going to install the 64 bit OS, and skip the programs that are on there, since I can replace them with something else. It does not have a CardBus slot, so audio work will have to be with USB. Windows 7 64 bit works VERY well, is very reliable, stable, and not very intrusive into the system resources. By the end of the year, I will be running it on ALL of my computers (technically, I am now, but this computer is dual boot with Vista Ultimate 64 bit, which I also find stable, reliable and fast). You *could* get something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Compaq-Presario-sr50...93%3A1|294%3A50 from ebay, and transfer your data over to it, and use the monitors that you have. Something like this would allow you to install Windows 7 RC (free for now, but, it's a Release Candidate and you will have to buy a full version later on) to get you running. Gary
I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
