I have a laptop that needs a $550 repair which wasnt covered under the warranty.cant afford a new 1, do i pay?

sony vgn nws240 390gb harddrive intel core 2 duo proccessor, 4gb of ram, and an intel video card. it intially costed $850 but with warranty it costed $1000, i cant afford a new one. this laptop has everything i need, but i cant afford a new one should i pay the $550 for the repair? or should i get a new one. i need a computer for my online math course and the repair will take 1 week but i will need to save much longer to buy a new one. is it worth it?|||You can get a nice cheap, quality Lenovo for that math course for around 330. I have a new one that is quite comparable.|||You can probably buy a new one that is as good or better than the one you have for $550. If you bought a warranty, that won't cover it??



Any of these i3s are better

For $600 you can get a new one!|||find something used you can afford



borrow a friend's for a while



warrenties are rarely worth the cost.



computers get cheaper or more powerful every year.



reduce your needs to match your "haves"|||What? $550 will get you a laptop that'll trash that Sony any day of the week. The repair is going to be more than that laptop is worth. Don't even bother.|||if all you need it for is an online math course get a new, cheaper one for the cost of the repair, after all, you dont want it to break again, better to be safe then sorry.|||does it need to be a laptop???
