It's four years old... but it is in great condition. The guy who fixed it said the only problem with it was the malware and spyware... so he got rid of it, replaced AVG with some antivirus program from Microsoft, and then just removed some un-needed things on the computer... mainly just to make it a little faster and more efficient.

And if you really want to know HOW it came to have these crazy viruses... apparently they got in through Java (@_@) or something and took down the automatic updates, then they just did... something... to it until it went in loops at the start-up... It's all good...
