I have a Sony Vaio laptop (PCG-9401) that works fine except for it intermittently buzzes in what sounds like imminent cooling fan failure. Recalling previous discussions about replacing laptop fans, I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle to repair and update. It still uses Windows ME, but I have a copy of XP I can load.
Replacing it with a low end $500 laptop would be fine. All it gets used for is word processing and some low-power applications. Very limited photo editing, no gaming, no video.
So, repair or replace?
