Those were nice laptops in the day but now completely obsolete. Uses Pentium M (Centrino) single core 32 bit processors and DDR 1 memory which maxes at 2 gigs. You could make it minimally competent for web browsing and word processing but it is really made for Windows XP, not even Vista let alone Windows 7-10. It is not capable of running 64 bit software.
