Well, my mom has been using an old Emachines rig, model 366i2
Here are the original specs for this roaring beast:
Intel® Celeron™ 366MHz (w/128KB Cache) PPGA CPU
32MB SyncDRAM (up to 256 MB)
2 USB Ports (1 is on Front)
1 Serial / 1 Parallel / 3 Expansion Slot
Audio In & Out / Game Port on Front
Internet Ready
Microsoft® Windows® 98
Microsoft Works
ATI Rage Pro Turbo 2X AGP with 4MB SGRAM
Crystal CS4280 3D PCI Audio
40x Max. CD-ROM Drive
4.3GB HDD (Ultra DMA EIDE)
3.5" 1.44MB FDD
56K* ITU V.90 PCI Fax/Modem
PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse
Stereo Speakers
Well, it's been slghtly altered. Yes, I know it's better to get a cheap barebones PC and build up, but I haven't the money for that.
Anyway, I added new speakers, another better hard drive, new software etc. Will be getting 256MB RAM from our friends at crucial, and doing the things above, if it is possible to add a newer CPU.
I can't seem to figure out what the fastest CPU this computer can support.
Can someone please help me with that?

Will it support that? I have my doubts
Thanks in advance,
