Come and pick them up is all it costs. Just Gathering dust...

Based on your statements about viruses etc. I would suggest a wipe of the OS drive before beginning. If you don't care about the data on your 20GB, go for it. If you do, I'd build the system on a new drive, and get it all loaded with Anti-Virus, etc. and then just make the old one a slave off of the new master to get your data. I have a bunch of spare sub 60gb drives, so it's no big deal if you want one.

Let me know if you want help. If you don't have broadband, you should take it somewhere that does to do the install. Even on Broadband, Windows Update takes well over 1/2 an hour on a fresh install.
How would I wipe my HD? Just install an OS over the current one? And if I had programs like Norton Anti-virus that I pay a yearly subscription for, could I recover that?

How much do you want for the memory? And for one of the HDs? I dunno cost prices...
