Get a new HDD for your laptop!

Here's a Seagate 60 gigabyte  UDMA/100, 5400 RPM spindle speed  8 MB
buffer laptop drive for  $49.95. If you enter the code FLATRATE when you
check out, shipping is $1.99

I buy a lot of my parts for repair jobs & upgrades from the Geeks. I
usually try to wait until they have special sales or shipping promos
like this deal. They ship FedEx from S. California --about 4-5 days you
usually have it.

As far as a network install, I never tried it, so I can't suggest
anything there, sorry.
