Adam Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hi Joe, nice talking with you the other day! I would keep your 7424. It's a great machine, and I still use mine today. The new unit is nice, but is not worth the $$ to upgrade, IMHO. Would anyone else here agree? Welcome to the community Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiterp199 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I have the XP. It is my first PC and I got an insane deal on it, otherwise I would have just jut the regular 7424. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superdutytd Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Not worth the upgrade, the new one is a bit heavier also I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 The benefit just doesn't justify buying a new unit... I recommend just using your "old" unit until it dies, then getting the new one. As the saying goes if it ain't broke don't fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new unit is nice, but is not worth the $$ to upgrade, IMHO. Would anyone else here agree? Welcome to the community Joe! I agree. I've used both and I'm perfectly fine with the older one. In fact, it feels a little more comfortable in my hands. Maybe it's the familiarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
