Dial Up – Slow Computer Upgradg to DSL?

by rbc0654 . Updated 25 years, 2 months ago

I have this client who wants to upgrade to DSL. They are currently on a Dial-up Modem. Their machine is a PI,-400mhz, w/31mb ram/ a 3ghd, It is very slllooow(intentional) to boot up, and takes forever to load the different software that they use to operate on a daily basis. I and the ISP provider feel that this machine is not worth upgrading, but that a newr machine with a faster processor, and more ram, and a bigger hard is necessary. This machine currently does not have an ether net card.Another (wannabe) tech says that the DSL will run just fine, and that (they- the tech) will install the ethernet card for about $25.00. Anyone with professional, reputable opinions, can ether respond to this, or send via e-mail to rbc0654@pop.ctctel.com. Thanks!
