The value of a 1999 Pentium III computer that works well for creating and editing notes letters and homework and maintaining a budget is about 5 to 85.00 dollars U.S. and such equipment can still be commonly purchased at local thrift stores or via internet sites or perhaps from friends who may still have such an old PC packed away in a basement, attic, or closet. The scrap value of the unit is 5 to 15 dollars U.S. Please take non-working equipment to a school used-computer collection event or to a computer equipment recycler to keep hazardous materials used in construction of the components from ending up in a landfill and then eventually in the water table that later becomes drinking water for many. Common operating system on the 1999 or 2000 A.D. PC will be Windows 3.1 (16bit) or Windows 95 (16/32 bit) or Windows 98, or Windows ME (Millennial Edition) or a version of Linux. Connection to networks for use to access the Internet is not advisable as none of the Mac or Microsoft operating systems is supported by the software companies anymore is such systems are vulnerable to virus or phishing or rootkit or other exploits. The old PC will not meet minimum requirements and will not be fast enough to load or to run modern popular Microsoft operating system software or application software so the ability to reload software depends on availability of the dated software that can run well on such an old slow PC. Consider Linux free-ware if the PC hardware works and only needs software. Much faster dual-core and triple core and quad-core computer systems can be obtained inexpensively and are more supportable and more usable for a full spectrum of common uses.
