How do i convince my dad to buy a new computer?

break the one u have now

I think the best thing would be to talk with him and let him know why you need a faster drive. You might also want to talk to friends and look at computers for sale on places like ebay so you can tell him how much the computer you want costs. If you're not happy with your Dad's answer let him know you don't understand. Good Luck!

bkbat has a point. The other option would be to get him to play a game on the computer and let him understand how slow it is. Maybe get him to go to a store and look at the new fast ones and let him get hooked. I always have to be convinced on things like this. Good grades will help too.

the difference between a 6x "drive" and a 16X is negligible.

Since DVDs are not 6 and 16, and harddrives are not X

you have to be refering to CD drives, which are typically

52X to 80X.

If you want an old, slow 16x CD to replace your old, slow

6X Cd drive, you can get another , old slow, computer with and old, slow, 16X CD in it for NOTHING - people are throwing them out.

I see 32X CD computers in the garbage.

Your computer is very slow because you have infested it with adware, spyware and a plethora of other crap from P2P sites! You are probably one of the 90 percent of users who also have every friggin program on the system running at once! If I was your dad, I wouldnt buy you another one until you became smart enough to use the one you have properly!

Tell him that the aliens dwelling inside your cryptic computer will set his brain on fire if he doesn't buy them better shelter.

If that doesn't convince him to upgrade, nothing will.

Unless he'll fall for the whole "It's too slow to do anything" routine, but that's nowhere near as fun as brain-frying aliens.

Get a activity. end being so lazy. Or hit upon a greater fee effective option. They make one thousand dollar desktops for a definite sort of individual. those human beings normally HAVE JOBS. You on the different hand ought to pass to a pair storage revenues or browse craigslist.

Earn half the money first. A new Dell with a slim flat screen monitor, keyboard and mouse can be had for under $400. (after rebate).

Tell him you need it for school projects and study! Show him how slow it is and offer to help pay for a tiny portion of it. Good luck!

Show him how bad your current computer is and show him too the price list of the latest computer which your dad can afford

just tell yr dad how slow yr comp. is working!!tell him that u can't work at this pace.if he understands u then he would surely agree or ask him as a gift on ur b'day. if he is in some kind of money crisis try & understand him.thank you!
