I am having a hell of a time with this editor. So if it llooks likookse I l on't know what I'm doing it's because I don't. If you can give any helpfull hints if any thing looks amiss please do. On to business. I was browsing through some old PC magazines a while back and noticed an article about installing your own hard drive. Now as impossible as it may seem I still live in the dark ages and use two floppies, but I can see now that it's time to move on to bigger and better things. So I'm going to purchase an HD and try and install it myself. From what PC said it was fairly easy and that most of the drives came with step by step instructions. I don't have acses. to the article any more and I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on brand names, companies to purchase from (Also mail speer), and cost which at this point is the main factor. I don`t want to end more than $350-400. Any Info.,sugesstions, or hints would be a great help.
