I am looking to purchase a refurbished PC to replace my old desktop which is older than God's dog and running XP. It does everything I need, just very slowly. I use it mainly for surfing the web, looking on here, e-mailing and facebook. Obviously I also use it for storing and editing my photos although only quite basic work using Elements !0. I don't really know what processor, Ram, hard drive etc. I need.
I can see some silly prices on some sites offering bundles from £69!! I know I'm not going to get anything decent for that sort of money but having said that I'm not in a position to spend tons of dosh on something I may not need, so the question is, what am I going to get for around the £200 that will do all that I need, bearing in mind my old clunker still works, albeit very slowly, and obviously is now susceptible to attack. I would probably go for Windows 10 as this would be the last PC I buy and I don't want to have to start looking again in a few years, and at 75 I shan't have that many years left. Any (sensible) advise will be appreciated, along with suggestions as to a decent supplier.
Many thanks
