Last Christmas I bought my wife an HP laptop and it works fine, except the
last few months it is very slow starting up.

If you post to long threads you should keep messages for a longer period.

Still, the cost of maintenance could be well spent on a new laptop in my
opinion.

Some of this years offers are great

deebs

This computer is not yet 12 months old. You must have money to burn.
An extra 256 mb RAM memory in the UK will cost from under £20 to £40.
Most likely cheaper in the US where the other person lives.
