[Blindtlk] New vs Refurbished computer

[Bryan Schulz]

hi,

for about $50 you could buy the casper cloning program and buy another hard 
drive and keep on using it as usual.
you would pop the door open and plug up the other drive and before your main 
drive dies, copy the drive and hope it works as you are getting errors.
